Under the hood roars a Roush 342 V8, a powerhouse wrapped in clean presentation with Roush heads, valve covers, and an Edelbrock Victor Jr intake feeding a Holley four-barrel carburetor topped by a Roush air cleaner. The quick-shifting Tremec TKO500 five-speed manual transmission with a Quick Time bell housing delivers crisp engagement, while the BMW front independent suspension and rear divorced coilover setup provide exceptional handling.
