We asked you which engines are too often overlooked - whether it's because of a more iconic engine available in the same car, or it's simply forgotten for no good reason - here are the best suggestions
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.
One of my favorite American engines, that’s for sure
Weren’t they prone to a lot, I mean a lot of gasket issues?
3sge BEAMS is more for the AE86. The 3sgte is more for MR2 or 2zzge.
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
Not a good sign indeed, although it was named after the designer.. Maybe it would have been a more suitable for the TwinSpark, as those tend to start knocking really quick when you forget to check the oil regularly. At an Alfa forum I visit those engines are also called ‘TickSpark’, guess that says a lot :P
Ahahaha, nice one! But in reality it takes the name from it’s creator, Giuseppe Busso

And the Turbo version too!
You don’t even know how helpful this was. Thanks
Volvo FTW
YES! The 2T-G is on this list; I can die happy :)
Busso in Italian means “I knock”
Not the best of signs…
