You all have to admit, this is a good debate. But it still stands though....try telling Porsche/Ferrari/Lambo, that there is no replacement for displacement.

2000 Porsche 911 Turbo
3.6ltr / 219.7 cu in
415 bhp @ 6000 rpm
413.0 ft lbs @ 4600 rpm

2002 Ferrari Enzo
6.0ltr / 365.4 cu in
660 bhp @ 7800 rpm
484.6 ft lbs @ ? I don't know this one.

2002 Lamborghini Murcielago
6.2ltr / 377.9 cu in
580.0 bhp @ 7500 rpm
479.4 ft lbs @ 4000-5400 rpm




And before anyone says anything about price.....this isn't a discussion about price of cars. It's about "no replacement for displacement" And the above shows that one doesn't need "displacement" to make power. I guess the correct saying is "There is a replacement for displacement, it's called technology".
