A 4-cylinder just cannot sound good. At all. Even the Subaru Boxer with its lumpy idle and stuff...it's better than most, but no.

 

 

Now, the sound of Turbo 5 or Boxer 6 (preferably turbo'd, thanks) and I'm on board. Or a smooth German V8. Never been a fan of American stuff. I can't get the image of Dukes of Hazard out of my head with them.

 

And it can't be loud, buzzy, drone, or anything like that. That's just annoying.

Ugh. How dare you.

 

 

Oh. I wasn't aware you traded your E for a Cadillac. :mellow::rofl:

Dude I so would! The CTS-V is the bees knees!!!

NO. No Generic Motors. EVER.

 

 

 

OK, I wouldn't say no if someone handed me the keys to a 6-speed CTS-V Wagon.... :mellow: :mellow:

I would argue to you that GM builds a better, more durable motor than the Germans.

Sort of off topic, but my uncle used to race dragsters. We'd go EVERY year to the Winternationals in AZ and camp out. I remember being at the startline, and then riding with the "crew" to tow him back to his 18 wheeler after he was done. I remember getting to stand (way back) behind jet engine dragsters and watching them haul flowers.

 

I met and got autographs from Big Daddy Don Garlits! And Shirley Muldowney. My uncle, then turned my other uncle and my female cousin onto dragster racing.

 

My first uncle ended up getting in a horrific accident, and the roll cage was the only thing that saved his life. He was in a wheelchair and had steel rods into his toes to rebuild his feet. He gave up racing for a long while, but got back into it racing funny cars, and now, even though he's well into his 60's, he rebuilds older cars and races them. He was even on Pinks All Out a few years ago. He has never watched any footage of his dragster accident.

 

Despite my makeup obsession, I am still a tomboy at heart, lol.

 

Nice!

I'd agree they are at minimum equals unless it's a Deathstar Northstar.
