Mercedes 3.5 V6 found in the C350 AMG,usually overshadowed by the C63 AMG or the base C180,200,220& 250
Nice a saab
The L67 3800 Series II is an underrated engine.
People know about the BEAMS 3S-GE, that’s why it’s sought after for SW20 MR2’s.
V4 engines.. They’re.. Different.
They do have their quirks and they’re not very powerful because there are no big v4 engines made.. I think the largest one is a 2 liter one?
But they have an iconic sound. And they were actually used for rally back in the day.
Yay, at the top of a list for the second time today! :D
what about the fiat HGT and HLX i5’s???
