While I purposely chose a V8, for much the same reasons as you I suspect. I can also accept the future that one day, sooner than later, the V6 will be what the V8 is today. Is this really a bad thing? I'm not so sure. Ford just revealed the new GT, expected to run a TTV6 with 600HP. While the exact details of said engine are in the wind, just the thought is amazing. When it comes to performance like that, does it really matter how many cylinders the engine has?

I understand what you're saying about the performance/horsepower numbers. But the one thing the V6 will not have is the distinct sound of a V8. That's important also.
