Best Sounding V6 Engine
 
Since the release of the 2014 Jaguar F-Type, I must say that the 380 hp variant of the AJ126 (3.0l Supercharged V6) is probably the best sounding V6 I've ever heard in bone stock car.

Agreed...

I had a GT-R & when it was stock it sounded more like a vacuum cleaner than a V6. lol

Now after some catless downpipes & Akrapovic exhaust--things improved nicely.

That Jaguar does sound nice. My favorite V6 is from a Dino Ferrari though... Normally aspirated Ferrari V-6 awesomeness:

Yeah, I'm not a Nissan fan-boy but I've heard some G35's with aftermarket exhausts that sound like Ferrari V8's. Very nice.

But woah, listen to this NSX.

That is among the worst and most hollow sounding engines EVER.

Stock it definitely has a very distinctive sound to it...but I absolutely hate the sound.

Basically Nissan V6s are my least favorite, sound-wise. That F-Type, on the other hand, sounds proper.

VQ35DE with ART pipes and HKS Hi-Power exhaust on a G35 coupe. Even bone stock exhaust tone sounds good. VQ35DE on a G35 coupe,FX35, and 350Z all sound very similar to each other except for the G35 sedan.

L6 2JZ w/o exhaust

But but but... 2JZ is an inline 6... Not a V6...

I am actually a fan of the 2GR-FE with a proper exhaust on the Evora.

Golf R32/Audi TT V6. If the golf got better mpg i'd have bought one on sound alone.
