Acura vs. LS V8 Linc.

This guy lost sooo bad. At first i didnt even know we were racing, so i was in sport shift and it auto dropped back into first, he was 1/2 a car ahead of me when it dropped. When i shifted out of first i was even, when i was about at 90, i was a good car to a car and a half ahead of that p.o.s. I just thought it was sad that that type of new V8 cant even compete w/ a v6.

How do you tell the difference between the V6 and V8 versions of the LS? Is it the rims or something?

The way u can tell if its a V8 or not is by the emblim on the back that says LS V8 on the tail lights, the V6's do not have that. Plus they were dealer plated so this guy thought he was the shgit racing around in his V8 until I beat him, thats how I knew he would race me.

HOw much did you pay for the K40 installed? I am getting a quote of a K40 front/rear for $769 installed. Is that comparable?
