Wonder what the transmission is rated for?

Thats the 25,000 dollar question right there. When i was shopping for a very silly car to reward myself for surviving three years in iraq my heart was at first set on the esprit. Only problem though is once i really started checking into it i discovered that they used a pug tranny...from a truck

thing could barely handle 300 wheel before it popped. And they were all out of production. Its a damn shame, that little yami (iirc) v8 is badass

I'd buy the G37. Sexy goes a long way and the Genesis is far from sexy.
