You know, there is a chance we wouldn't lose that growl in a turbo V6...I'm going to pay attention to Leno's website for when he drives and documents the car...buuuut....exhaust note has as much to do with cylinders as it does air-output...and 450hp is a lot of air.

We'll probably lose the signature firing pattern sound...but the growl, and roar...maybe not....

Don't count on it. Even this car likely weighs ~3750....
And I think a lot of folks agree with you on the LSA thing.

I've been dreaming of a DI V8....the question is not if, but when....and it's the only model-to-model change that I would wait an extra year for....
