Not a V6 but I think the best sounding 6 cylinder is the GT3RS 4.0... By FAR

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XcjnpJofT_k"]NEW Lotus Evora Test Drive with Awesome Sound - YouTube[/ame]

This 2GR-FE didn't sound like any other one I ever heard.

@1:15 has a start clip with revs and a little around 1:40 is when he takes off.

Imagine a Camry sounding like this lol.

The best sounding V6 won't exist until next year and it will be a 1.6L.

Why? Because nothing in this world is anything like any variation of a Formula 1 Engine.

Sorry....but "Better" is so subjective. Efficiency I understand but a smaller diamond, bank balance or boobs just aren't "better" IMO.....to name just a few
