What the hell is a V5?
My first car was a 1978 Firechicken. I sold that to my cuz who wrecked it, Bitch... and then got a 1990 Ford Taurus SHO. I know its a ford but it had the Yamaha 220 hp V6. That was a fast car...

Re: How many cylinders did your first car have?
Don't they usually put odd number cylinders in a line? Never heard of a V-5. awww, one cylinder without a partner.

Re: How many cylinders did your first car have?
1988 Mercury Tracer.. Car sounded like an R/C car in reverse.. it was too funny to drive.. I tried top speed and it was 79 downhill with the wind behind me.. I couldn't get it to go 80 for the life of me.. not enough hp.. but it got like 34 mpg.

Re: How many cylinders did your first car have?
I had no idea they had 5 cylinder engines. Whatever I will stick with my LS-1 V8. When I get done with nursing school I was to get v-12 or some crazy shit like that. Or just a Ferrari...like a F355 syder

is the wrong answer. there is such thing. my car has one, and that's some fairly solid proof. honda also ran V5s in their race bikes. so yes, they do exists.
care to explain what that is? looks to be a V5 with my eyesight, which was 20/20 last time it was checked.
wait, there's more:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V5_engine - mine's the 2.3-litre variant.
http://www.engineaction.com/photo.htm - look at the two top pictutres.

Re: How many cylinders did your first car have?
Yep, I knew there was a 5 cylinder, thats why I put it is an option. I didn't figure anyone's parents were stupid enough to give a 10 or 12 cylinder as a first car and if those were options everyone would try to be "funny" and pick those.

Re: How many cylinders did your first car have?
My first car was an '87 TA w/ the 305 V8, bought for $3000..I loved that car, but it was wrecked last august when some lady pulled out and hit me..then I drove around a ford focus for six months until I saved up enough to buy my '95 Trans Am with the 5.7L
