    Wow - I love the sound of my 350z but the 3L v6 Busso sounds and looks better. My Spider is only a 2L twin spark as in the Spider the v6 is too powerful / heavy and hinders handling through scuttleshake, it’s much better suited to the more ridged GTV.

    Thanks JB. I did wonder if you would choose an S5. Even with the roof down you will not hear the SC whine as it has a silencer on it & will need a type of induction kit on it (next upgrade for me). When you are in manual mode & shift down it automatically gives you the heal-toe changedown & if you change up from 1st to 2nd at 3000 rpm you get a little growl. I love it! It's a practical convertible with 4 seats, reasonable baggage room & if driven with some reserve (unlikely) will give decent MPG. All the best............

    A couple more Alfas to consider if anyone is after a V6 - the GT 3.2 and the 156 GTA are both great cars. I owned a GT 3.2 for a few years and it is a real head turner. I would advise a professional inspection on a ramp for either of these cars though, as the floor pans and sills can be an issue.

Otherwise probably the Audi S5 in convertible spec, which is also a pretty awesome car in my opinion

    @ApothecaryTerry 2 года назад +2

    Favourite sounding V6 is easy: 2GR. Bias because it's in the GS450h, but it sounds best in the Evora (GT410/430 especially).
    The 147 GTA is a car that I love. I have huge respect for anyone who owns one...but you'd have to be properly insane to actually buy one 😄 I have a very simple benchmark for any car: would it cost more to run than my porker. If yes, buy Porsche instead.
    If you're going lower on price, don't limit yourself to the V- you can't have a BMW or Porsche then! Must be able to get a flat 6 Boxster or I6 BMW or some kind for £5k.
    Complex and painful to make video idea: X cars for Y money, but accounting for total ownership costs. Would be incredibly good consumer advice- it's the calculation I did for my Porsche, since sure it was £30k to buy but 2 years later it's up for sale at £30k so I reckon accounting for every penny leaving my account it's been cheaper than anything on this list.
