    I heard the SHO came with a V8 but I have never seen one I have just seen the V6 Yamaha engine....and they sound like a V6. I like the older style kinda.

    I think they are a pretty quick car. I have never seen one of those (that style) but I have been in a few of the older style ones. The automatic SHO felt like it lacked alot of power but the 5 speed one would roast the front tires off easy lol.

    Yep, the old style V6 with a 5 Speed will Torch the newer V8 Automatics.

    yeah the v6's are faster than the newer ones. i think the v8's run like high 15's or low 16's.
