Weirdest Car of the Week: a Geo Metro with a V8 where the back seat went
Cars & Bids just sold a street-legal 1996 Geo Metro with a mid-mounted LS4 5.3-liter V8 for $16,000. The official car of 50 mpg has discovered horsepower the hard way.
Weirdest quirk The factory 1.0-liter three-cylinder was replaced by a mid-mounted LS4 5.3-liter V8 sitting where the back seat used to be, with rear-wheel drive and flared rear arches.
