Who ever thought BOSE was good is a total loving retard. Its hilariously retarded, especially the integration on GM's products. (I am staring directly at the Cadillac division)

Same with Mazdas. If you want to upgrade ANYTHING to the stereo, you have to upgrade everything. Otherwise it's not balanced at all.

That's what sucks about the Mazda 6 and 3's. I really want a 6 wagon but I can't stand the lovely integrated system. And I feel sorry for all the people that bought base models and can't upgrade the crap stereo. Bose is lovely, but it has to be better than the base unit.

The Bose unit is better than most stock stereos, but still nowhere near as good as the cheap HU and $100 speakers I had in my GTI. You can do a lot with car audio for very little coin.

This thread is officially a bad influence. This is the best panther I could find:



It's a little on the large side, but at least if I bankrupted myself buying it I'd have somewhere to sleep...



Good god...you could import one from the US for significantly cheaper. That is a $10,000-12,000 car.

Just for the sake of argument, what else fits in the 4.6's place? 460 Big-block? 10cyl. from a van? I bet if the 10cyl. fit it'd go like stink. I've always had the idea kicking around my head to combine the frame and suspension from a P71 with the body of an old square Town Car, the 10-cylinder motor from a commercial truck, and some kind of stick-shift. Is that just a pipe-dream, or something do-able?

5.4 or 4.6 32v would be less work.
