D2 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER Wednesday, May 23, 2001 B e s t W h e e l s O a k v i l l e ___ 200 1 C h ry sle r Intrepid Chrysler Intrepid attracts attention from NASCAR F or 2001, the Intrepid promises to be con siderably more visible than ever before. That's because a number of NASCAR teams will be hitting the Winston Cup circuit with their Intrepid-bodied racers to duke it out with Chevy, Pontiac and Ford. With its already wirtd-cheating shape, it shouldn't take long for one of these cars to reach victory lane. Less speedy, but more lushly equipped Intrepids that anyone can buy are available at your Chrysler dealer in three versions: SE; ES; and R/T. Base SEs come with a 2.7-litre DOHC V6 rated at 200 horsepower. The ES shares that engine but is hooked up to a four-speed AutoStick shifter instead of a regular leave-it-indrive four-speed gearbox. Optional on the ES is a 3.2-litre SOHC V6 producing 225 horsepower. The hot R/T model gets a 242-horsepow er 3.5-litre SOHC V6, which happens to be a detuned version o f the engine found in the LHS and 300M (253 horse power). New items on the '01 Intrepid include available 16-inch cast alum inum rims and optional side airbags.

Hot Just R Promise! CEASE' MAZDA GRADUATE PROGRAM w w w .oakvillem azda.com lhe 2001 Miata is not just a mild sports car anymore. With extra clout under the hood, this 11 -year-old charm er can now flex its muscles like a true performance machine. That's because the base 1.8-litre DOHC four-cylinder engine now delivers a sparkling 155 horsepower, 15 more than last year's 140 total. New variable valve tim ing on the- intake cam gets most of the credit for this extra bulge in power. Engine compression has also been increased a half point to 10.0:1. All Miatas arrive with plenty of standard goodness, but you can dress up the car with items such as air condi tioning, leather-trim m ed interior, limited-slip differ ential, remote keyless entry, wind blocker, Nardi steering wheel, aero package, remov able hard top and 200-watt Bose sound system. A five-speed manual transmission is standard, or you can let the optional fourspeed automatic do all the fun work. But for real shifting plea sure, the Miata offers an optional six-speed manual transmission, just the gear box you need to extract maximum performance from the Miata's new-found horsepower.
