Idk why everyone thinks the 3800 sounds like crap.
Mine sounds amazing and it's pretty quiet.

The ONLY way a FWD 3800 sounds decent is with a turbo...

Sure at idle they sound find, and maybe to a non-car person it's a V8-esque noise, but as soon as you stray over like 2500 RPM, vomiting giraffe noises ensue.

Too bad GM didn't bring in the Holdens as Bonnevilles... Cause RWD 3800 sound decent with a true dual setup.

Ive heard v6 300c's that sound 10x worse

He teaches an entire class on how to overhaul one single engine? Somhow I doubt that
