When can you put all those words together? This thing looks like it puts down some serious power. Also what is this motor that has 2 spark plugs per cylinder?

Want it! Besides the ugly steering wheel and column gauges.

I just learned something new. I knew Mazda had a "twin spark" engine at one point, as a friend in college had a pickup with one. Never knew Toyota had one, too. Apparently at least a variant of the T engine, 4T-GTEU.

I'm bored at work so I was reading bringatrailer and saw that somebody in my city was selling a 69 Chevelle wagon on eBay! But I missed it and it went for only $7500. Argh. It was beautiful too.

Such a Sexy car. Such a bad interior. I'm sure the next owner will change that.

That looks like a Toyota 3T-GTE, quite the engine back in the day

You'd be surprised how many manufacturers have used twin-spark technology, even in modest cars. I had a Nissan Pintara (1990 Stanza to Statesiders) years ago which had the CA20E engine and used 2 plugs per cylinder.
Alfa Romeo used them, Mercedes used them in the M112 & M113 engines, some rotaries use them (13Bs for example), even four banger Rangers and Mustangs from the early 90s.
