Jono Posted April 30, 2006 Report Posted April 30, 2006 (edited) It doesn't mention profitability, of which Toyota is number one (They will also exceed GM as the biggest car maker later this year) BMW made a pre-WWII i6 engine of just 1.2 litres. It wasn't used in a production car, just war machines. Edited April 30, 2006 by JC807 Quote
irokin Posted April 30, 2006 Report Posted April 30, 2006 They mention the Ferrari F1 1.5L V8....but not the BRM 1.5L V16 one of the sweetest sounding engines of all time. Quote
