Japanese made, 4 overhead cams, high rev compared to the old USA V8 pushrods. CVVT is complex and failure prone if oil changes are not every 5K miles with synthetic. Absolutely no space in the engine compartment to work on anything.

Gobbs of BHP without any turbo or supercharger(it wouldn't fit anyway). MPG not so good. Fun with a lead foot!
