Why do V6's sound so lame?

[Vince@Meanstreets]

its all in the firing order and compression.....plus most of the v6's you hear usually have 3" fart cans on em...hense the reason you can hear them. Cummin's to me sound like a Rotory on steroids.

Because they are not built like 2JZ!

This one sounds ok for a V6 (taken with a cell phone )

I saw the 2JZGTE mentioned... I'm very much in love with the sound of Volkswagen's VR6, or more specifically USP's VRT (video of their old 12V setup).

=========================

I wasn't able to tell much about it other than a turbo and a nice sound. Can you tell me what I was listening to?

Thanks,

harleys sound like crap and run like crap. they make louder and worse sounding noise than the ricers do and they move out of hearing distance even more slowly at wot.

harley-davidson....the world's most efficient way to turn fuel into noise without the by-product of horsepower!

Can't agree. Sound is subjective and you are entitled to your opinion, but...I take it you've not watched the Vance and Hines team kill the ricers at the drags for the last five years? Granted, it's a V-Rod archechture but still.

I'd add, my 124 cu in/155 hp V twin sounds throaty and kicks some a$$. JMHO...
