Do want. In my car, now.

 

[Xfirez51]

What a F**king motor!!! All 9L and 1350hp of it.

Just an update

wow

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

these have been in boats for a number of years now. An outdrive+motor package is $300k+

 

[Ear Rak]

Car version is $65k

 

[Outlaw]

Yup, because they know you've got the money... With that said, I want a pair of those with some #6 dry sumps for the Baja

176.4 on the water! That's nuts and looks super smooth while doing it.

that's also a pair of 1350s, not a single engine. So 2700hp to push a boat that fast.

People spend a lot of money on cars, boats take it to a whole new level of excess. That boat is every bit of $750k and probably more.
