As much as the idea of a big block V8 in a Daytona is appealing (would you be thinking 440, or a crate Hemi?), why not go with the turbo 2.2 route? Hell, there are 4-cyl Caravans running 12 second 1/4 miles, so it shouldn't be any problem to get the Daytona pretty damn quick.

I dont think a 50 year old would think a Turbo is appealing. Hes the kind of guy who seen Warren Johnson when he was a little kid so he would like anything that can smoke a import. and a civic is the least of his worries :lol: the only import he's into is the NSX which i think is american now. i seen them here and there in maryland. whenever he finally gets the car up and running we'll race each other at the track mano-mano 1 on 1 no holds barrel. BTW if you want to see my local tracks their names are

Maryland International Raceway- MIR
Capitol Raceway
Potomac Raceway- Dirtbike/Dirt Oval :lol: DOWN IN TEH COUNTRAY!!! :lol:

I guess if we're going to list all of our parents' cars, my list would go as follows:
1970's Toyota Corona
1974 (?) Plymouth Duster (unfortuantly, it was probably only the slant six, my dad's never cared much about cars)
1985 Pontiac Sunbird
1990 Hyundai Sonota
1993 Plymouth Sundance
1989 Dodge Grand Caravan
1999 Dodge Grand Caravan
1995 Chrysler Intrepid (my parents owned it for about a year before I bought it)
1999 Hyundai Elantra
and, by a technicality, 1992 Ford Escort (my car is registered in my dad's name for insurance reasons).
