im not saying that i would like a v6 in this car. it was designed for a flat 4 (and seemingly designed well) so i like it that way. it just seems that people are equating a boxer motor to low cog which may or may not be true.

Chill my friend. You asked, so I just replied. lol
Yes, some V engine can put it A LOT lower than FA20... but as of stock set up & price tag comparison, there's some difference between V6 & FA20. Also "significant" could mean different to everyone. 2mm might be BIG difference to some... Some may think differ.
As for COG been true or false on this car, we don't know. BUT til proven wrong, can't deny that statement
