I would love to see pics of how he got a 6.1 into the engine bay. This will be interesting to follow.

interesting responses...lantana has a v8 mercedes engine, not a 6.1
has anyone responded to the ad? maybe the seller would be happy to send pics, if you were a buyer.

Could just be me, but I am betting the poster on both forums is the same person. I also bet he is the person trying to sell the car on Craigslist. Something fishy about it all.

subscribing.

Over 600HP in a XF is my wet dream, but what did it take to get him there?

No pics so I call BS. Why would you post something like this without pictures. Either someone is trying to corroborate their own story elsewhere or they missed April fools day by a good month and then some.

perhaps...as the ad stated, it's in for a complete paint and prep for barrett jackson

these bs responses are too funny
i can't remember how many vehicles I've owned, custom cycles, trucks and a mryriad of cars.
i know I owned them but I don't have 1 pic. don't have any pics of my ex wife either but I'm pretty her existance isn't bs. that dividing of the property sure felt like reality.

Perhaps if you were going to do something this crazy, you'd wait until it was completed before you start talking about it which begs the question, why even post something like this on CL if it's going to be sold at Barrett Jackson or you'd at least post pictures of the build. You can't tell me if someone is doing something of this caliber, they don't have pictures from the build. I know if I was dropping a V8 in a Crossfire, I'd be taking all sorts of pictures.

So my statement of bullshit stands until I see pictures. Guess we'll have to wait until it "gets back from paint". LOL

Black05: Why if this is true would you post all of the following at mbworld.org and not here to begin with?

Your Post:
"ok, just so everyone understands, i use this forum for very useful info. I want to ythank everyone for their posts on a myriad of subjects as it has been quite informative, insightful and sometimes funny.

with that said I present the following for your amusement.

While driving to El Paso to visit some friends, I was cruising at about 120.

perfect driving day, no traffic, no peep from the radar detector, unlimited visibility.

saw something in the rear view coming up quickly so I slowed down to about 90.

a black crossfire passed me like i was standing still. i saw brake lights so i figured he wants to have some fun too.

i punched it and took it to about 120 and i caught up.

no markings on it, just all blacked out.

we rolled down our windows and gave each other the 'nod', and i punched it.

i got ahead about a car length and he blasted by. i took it to 155 and could not catch him.


i have run against srt-6's, vetts and other assorted high lines but this was different. i get smoked by the higher power cars but with my mods i'm prob pushing 400 hp +/- and i have never experienced that level of
being left in the dust!

now the question is, what kind of crossfire is this. anyone know? "----


Just too much of a coincidence to me.
