Nice. Always nice to kill a northstar. Never had that luxury, probably never will but it'* cool. It'* still fun to race and kill cars, not fun on my stock tranny though. :( One I pop in my turbo, I'll be sure to get a MUCH MUCH better tranny to withstand all that punishment, the only thing is I hope my engine can to, if not, hello SSEi. That'* definately my next car, or if i learn to drive a stick shift which I haven't yet because of my disability, I might dip my hands into that SRT-4, I'm not a big fan of dodge but damn that'* a fast car. Nice kill though. Those devilles have some major spunk to them.

92 was the first year of the northstar, 93 was the last year of the 4.9 for the seville and eldorado, the deville kept it till 95, in 96 all had the northstar, not counting the catera. red baron hasn't responded but, i just thought id say it might have been a 4.9 if it had the rear skirts, even when they put the northstar in the deville, it was the 270hp version.

not trying to sound like a jerk, but i always like to point out facts, that and i hate BS (nothing to do with this thread)

You hate me? :(

J/K......but I do have to point out my 95 was NOT a concours, had the skirts, and had a Northstar. It must have at l east been an order-option at the time.

Mikey whats up
I didnt really take the time to see if it had fender skirts or not, didnt think that was very important. When I see another one like it I'll let you know if it had the fender skirts since it means so much to you ok.
BTW whats with all the mention of BS? I sure hope it has nothing to do with my kill, I understand you think you drive a POS that "looks" like mine but dont start waving any flags at me. I have killed many cars that "should" have been able to smoke me but didnt.
I wouldnt be surprised if it was a Northstar if not oh well I had fun anyway.
Now dont think I'm trying to start anything just trying to clear up the BS.
