They better not even try this nonsense... EVER!!!! :x :x :x :x
Until now the car has been able to meet and beat EPA requirements (and is an ULEV at this time) by using transmission tricks and muffler muffling...
If you want a V6 - buy a V6... but take this "cylinder deactivation" and shove it...   |
if you recall, the ZR-1 had the option before you would start the car, i know nobody who has done this
also, my understanding is the 7.0 liter block in the next Z is meeting cafe and Euro IV (or is it eruo V)with all 8 cylinders rounching about, and muffling the mufflers when not fully cracked open. comparable highway milage to the z06... perhaps better.
