2JZ and RB26 are two of the best sounding 6 cylinder motors I've ever heard.
2JZ has the worst I6 sound in the world, great engine and all that but its quite sad sounding.

Majorette of Nissan L series engines, best with twin carbs!

The extremely rare Hemi I6. (Suprised more of these aren't imported into America)

And i'll give a modern mention to the BMW N55, sounds great with a simple catback removal.

Thats all folks.

I have a soft spot in my heart for the BMW S54 (from the E46 M3) as well. It's a glorious engine.

My favorite BMW engine has to go down as the S85 on the E60 M5

The noise the that engine makes is truly something. I heard one with a Meisterschaft exhuast in Washington DC and I swear on what ever heavenly power that may or may not exist you could hear the thing 10 blocks down the street

Just picture this noise.... x10

Mmm, tasty.

Meisterschaft is making an exhaust for the twins, can't wait to hear.

Though I have always wanted one, we get them in from time to time at our shop, and this customers always made me need to change pants. I vote sub-zero due to the dream part of it. Transmission issues (mostly fixed now on new models) is about the only part that worries me.

Fantastic car that I would certainly love to have...but cool? Not in my book.

A little too precise, electronic, uncharismatic to me.
