Goofballs.....er’body knows it was a straight 6 in the first couple of years of Corvette, until the exciting new smallblock V8 was ready. Interesting that they designed it as a stylish boulevard cruiser, not a sports car, and only got interested in power later. Zora A-D was behind that I think.

(This is one of the cars I used to own. Rare car. I'd never heard of them until I bought it. Nice sleeper.)

I like inline 6 engines. I haven't owned one I didn't like. One of the smoothest engines you can find, no matter what the year or make it is.

Nope.

Is that a 1957? Ferrari? (I love cars from the 50s) Not sure what model though.

Didn’t British Leyland rebadge a Honda at one point? Rover? Or is it an “Acura?”

Nope. No Honda or Acura. It is Japanese though.
