just so i have something to post for today (still need to get the Gemini onto the website) I went ahead and took the V6 engine out of the Suon and put it in the Gemini
it's the same visually so the specs were the only thing i really needed to post, now it's time to make a V8 Suon lol
EDIT: i just realized the V6 version is cheaper than the I4, guess DFI is just too expensive, so i'll make a little story.
so in 2005 galt created the 2005 model year gemini, it is one of the earliest cars to feature DFI along with being sub 20 grand, however being only 85 horsepower it was unable to catch on in the american market, it flourished in the japanese market though, which is where most of the R types ended up, so for the american market the PR trim was made, it featured the V6 used in the Suon. and since the PR trim had a 124 HP V6, was nearly a grand cheaper, and was actually capable of hauling stuff around, it was a complete success in the american market, though what is probably the best achievement of it, was the fact it had only one less MPG than the R trim, all of these factors is why the PR outsold 95:5 in the US and Canada, the only place it was actually sold in fact.
