Fuzzy pictures, V-12 turbo, and great gas mileage? I'm Sold!Comment

I don't see what the big deal is?... I have that same V12 in my MX-6 except mine is N/A. Got it from an MK2 Supra. Its great on gas, and yes, I also deliver pizza in it. I know the pic in the Ebay ad is fuzzy, but if you look close can still tell its the same V12 I have in this pic minus the turbo. Anyone who can read can see that it says 12-VALVE right on the valve cover, which, everyone knows is Mazda code for V12. Still need to find another BP for the festi though, its should be as fast as a Veyron, since its 16-VALVE which we all know means 16 cylinder like the Veyron

V12 man, rare car. If it were a foreign job, you would count the lug nuts to see how many cylinders it has.
Karl'93GL "Prettystiva" ticking B3 and 5 speed, backup DD; full swaps in spring!
'91L "AquaMutt" my '91L; B6 swap/5 speed & Aspire brakes, DD/work car
'92L "Twinstiva" 5sp, salvage titled, waiting for repairs...
'93GL "Luxstiva," '94 B6 engine & ATX; needs overhauled
'89L "Muttstiva," now a storage bin, future trailer projectComment

Wow, thanks for the tip Karl! I just counted the lug nuts on my MX6 and it turns out I have the coveted 20 cylinder (which is really just four Volvo inline 5 motors welded together). I guess they just put the V12 valve cover on there to fool people into thinking it was JUST a V12, kinda like a sleeper at the track Bwahahaha!

Its actually 5 wheel drive, there is a separate shaft that comes off the rear diff to turn the spare tire. The perpendicular rotational axis of the spare in relation to the other wheels gives the desired gyroscopic effect of added stability in cornering and also helps counteract the massive torque forces of the V12 (or in my case, I20) which would otherwise flip the car over on its roof :!:Originally posted by thered56 View PostNo festiva for me ATM...Comment
