those v6's have no room on the back side of them to try to get into.
if they put them in front-wise and have a big engine compartment - that would be different.

and you can leave a 4 in the car and do an engine rebuild; cannot get to the rear main seal - but you can save thousands of dollars doing your own engine. if one has a standard, then some day doing the clutch, one can do the real main.

 

Not really. It's more like an lx because it has most of the features of the ex. Also, I don't think that the d16y5 is 3-stage. I though that was only the d15b.
