And at the end of the day, 9 times out of 10 when you pop your bonnet people are just going to say "Oh, another V6 hero." The 3.8L is such an old motor, the technology of the time that designed it is a massive limiting factor.

I'm more interested in how a worked N/A 3.8l V6 will destroy cars with forced induction... maybe one of those turbo charged 3 cylinder Suzuki Cappuccinos but thats about it...
