Is that $15 or $1500???????? I assume you meant $1500.
Personally I like the 4 (lpt or aero depending on how much you are willing to pay). Here is why:
(1). V-6 engine might be just fine but 4 is proven bullet-prove (or at least as near as you can get).
(2). The v-6 engine isn't really fine because it has a damn timing belt (the four has a chain). Timing belts are a crule joke manufactures play on their customers (probaby for the benefit of their dealers). The v-6 belt on this engine seems to be even more trouble than most.
(3). Getting the weight out of car especially out of the front really helps handling all other things equal.
(4). The four really is simply a great engine.
IMO
