	they built a V8 by grafting two Hayabusa engines together. So far the figures are 372hp and the ability to rev to over 10,000rpm, slightly mad!!!!!!!!!11111one!

	I'm liking that engine, but I'd sooner have it in an Imp than a Smart car!

	What are they like those Smart engines? Much potential for taking one out of an elk-tested example and slotting into something else? Complex electronics I guess, with the gearbox an' all?

	Considering the weight of the car the engine doesn't sound too sharp, check out those 0-60's! www.parkers.co.uk/choosing/carreviews/review.aspx?model_id=1101&page=8
