    Sources say the two engines will be a be a twin-turbocharged V6 producing a max of 450 HP and a naturally-aspirated V8 exceeding 500 HP. Both engines are part of a a €50 million ($62 million) investment made by Fiat and will be built on a new assembly line in Italy.

    Vehicles that will use this engine include Maserati’s upcoming SUV and mid-size luxury sedan, as well as Alfa and Lancia’s new flagship sedans.

    Sounds Nice, but lets get to the meat and potatoes of the issue.

    You can have all the horse power in the world but what is the Torque???? Little bity torque does not do much even with a bunch of power.

    Not a fan of engines that rev and have horsepower but no torque!

      I'm saying that the retail store was removed from Pepboys. Old footprint: PepBoys:  Service bays + Retail auto parts and accessories (typically the retail area alone was bigger than an AutoZone) AutoZone: Retail auto parts and accessories New Footprint: PepBoys: Service bays only AutoZone: Retail auto parts only

      If PepBoys was replaced by either AutoZone or Advance Auto, you're saying a service shop(with a retail store (PepBoys)) was replaced by just retail stores? That's the only reason I was suggesting it may not have been AutoZone/Advance.

      Always liked those old Dodges...I learned to drive in the mid 80s in a '79 Dodge Power Wagon 4x4 short wide box pickup my Dad had.  Very numb steering--no on center feel at all, bouncy suspension, would stall on left turns.  Was very clean w/ like 25k miles..silver green inside and out.

      I'm not sure what you're asking. The private equity firm owns both PepBoys and one of those other two.  PepBoys does service, but they ALSO had basically an entire AutoZone and more inside. They had a much bigger and (IMHO) better selection than the other two.  The private equity firm closed out the retail parts & accessories side of PepBoys and made them all service only.  There were some PepBoys that were already like that, but most had a retail parts counter also.

      When it was first announced and everything, I thought VW was going to service them and I had no issue with that. There's a VW dealership about 30 minutes away. That would have been just fine with me. Theeeeeen I read they will have their own service centers and for people outside of X miles, they'd have the service come to you. That sounds good and all but I know that isn't for the life of the vehicle and when something isn't covered I'm sure there will be a distance-like service fee attached.  Advance and AutoZone are stores though. Maybe there's another service center you're thinking of? Meineke?   Yes. Agreed.
