Picture of an AP2 with engine specs of an AP1 make me question their true love for this amazing automobile.

This car from its inception was always all about the motor..... The F20c won Engine of Year award 4 years in a row... The automotive industry knew how remarkable it was then and it is being recognized again 15 years later...... But we all know that......

But it is cool that this engine is still being chosen by many reputable sources as a marvel all these years later.....

Author talks about the 1st gen as the best, then quotes 2nd gen engine specs... Looks like it was written by a know-nothing.

The legend grows, like Pinocchio's nose. At least for this article.

In Europe the AP2 was also fitted with the F20C. The F22C never made it to Europe.

Same in the Middle East. I'd like to think we've got the best of both worlds

Ap2 body, Ap1 engine
