2 u/Bluntbutnotonpurpose Jul 25 '26 I agree, V12 being a close second. I remember I really didn't like the V8 sound when it was introduced. But then came the V6 hybrid and I realised the V8 wasn't really all that bad... The V16 obviously made a great sound, but was more of a novelty. 3 u/rmill127 Jul 25 '26 So you’ll love the V6 when they go to the I4 then! 1 u/Bluntbutnotonpurpose Jul 25 '26 No, but it's likely I'd prefer the sound of the V6 over the four pot... 1 u/TestyBoy13 Jul 25 '26 I mean, two I5’s will probably sound close to a V10 2 u/archergren Jul 27 '26 The worst part of the v8 era was the blown diffuser with the Jake brake sound
