One last hip hip hooray for the old v8
I hope not. Even if they can still make the same power out of a turbo V6, I still don't trust the long term durability of those engines. I fear history may be repeating itself, and pray that we aren't about to enter another two decades of pi$$ poor reliability like the first time the government convinced itself that it could tell GM how to build their cars better than they could build them themselves.:(
