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.

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:

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.

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