Just curious, What 'sounds great' about a larger displacement, thirstier, more complicated, difficult to service configuration (v6 in transverse installation) engine that puts out the same HP as a FPT 2.3L I4? I just wish the marketing wags would spin 'better' as opposed to being 'me too' with a v6. The new 'global 4' with 2.2l displacement and a turbo can easily go north of 280hp + 250 ft-lb (better head design than a B235, flows better) in FPT configuration. The bigger problem is a transmission that can take it!
