Default LS6 in a Lexus Pro Drift car

Found this in depth article about a Lexus Pro drift car with a beautiful LS6 in it. Just thought it was amusing and pleasing to see this thing with a GM powerplant.

Meh, I know the difference between an engine and a motor, but the slang has become so intense that an engine can be called a motor IMO, we all know what we're talking about.

One thing that I've always wondered though, why are the things that attach the engine to the frame called "motor mounts"? I've even seen them listed that way in the past, in parts catalogs...

Oh yea, that Lexus is a sick ride!

Ya I don't even bother worrying about the whole engine and motor language thing.

Speaking of Lexus, I work for Lexus but I've never seen an IS like that in our shop! I guess that would be an IS570
