It's not the number of cylinders that gives it that V8 sound. It's cylinder displacement (size of the cylinder). That is why a two cylinder Harley sounds mean as hell. That's also why a V10 may not sound as aggressive as a V8 due to trying to save space.
So if the V8 were to ever die, all engineers have to do is make those cylinders bigger! And there you have it...your V8 sound coming out of a V6 or maybe even a 4 cylinder
