SLK with SLR engine!

Or a E36 M3, or an E34 M5 with a Supra Engine or a M5 V10.

I've always wanted to put a V8 in a Toyota MR2, though I'm not sure which V8's would fit in that chassis. let's just say LS6 or LS7 Corvette engine for fun

with that much excess power he could turn it into energy and he could have a second engine in the back to be a hybrid and when he wants to kick someones ass all he needs to do is press the V button. V for V-Tec
