Flat six is way better than a v6. V6 sound is shit.
Christian Butler

Blake Mitchell
Too bad they sound like camrys with a low-pass filter, ever since they gave them the crazy german technology of WATER COOLING.
Blake Adams
Does flat 6 have perfect balance like i6?
Chase Thomas
>v6
garbage
Hunter Wright
Nope
Hudson Rodriguez
>v6
>good sound
Come on man, atleast try
Dylan Williams
Unlike the V6 but like the inline-6, the flat-6 is a fully balanced configuration which is in perfect primary and secondary balance.

hes trying to get people to like his shitty soy6 by hiding it behind the god tier flat 6. like a scummy jeweler who sells a set with a real and fake diamond, but only tests the real one for you

Boxers are flat sixes (with a specific crank layout) and they're perfectly balanced.
Busso sound > all.
John Evans
Yes, and without having a retardedly long crank.
Aaron Cox
Daily reminder that the V6 engine is the winningest engine in the history of F1.

In a standard consumer car, I'd say it's pretty far out there.
Austin Stewart
Memes aside how can Porsche squeeze so much power out of an N/A flat six?
What would happen if they put that efficiency into making a 8 cylinder variant of the GT3 engine?
Samuel Stewart
>The exact same thing, 2 more cylinders
There's no wayyy that could be better, because, m'veesix.

Impeccable taste

If a flat 6 is balanced, then why not an i3?
Blake Hall
>flat 6
okay, now consider the possibility of working on it yourself
without an engine crane, or a lift to remove the car from the engine.
Chase Johnson
>best sound
Are you drunk? Have you not heard ferrari v10/12, aston martin v12 or a fucking v10 in LFA?
6 cyl sounds alright, but nowhere near those screaming monsters
Aaron Morales
Sounds like generic, v6 "sports" car
Noah Watson
Because an i3 isn't balanced? And they do exist, just with a bunch of balancing shafts. I'm not really sure what you're going for here.
Jeremiah Evans
Because an I3 is imbalanced - but sticking two of them exactly opposed like in a boxer cancels that imbalance and makes for a perfectly balanced engine with a short crankshaft.
Hudson Lopez
Allegedly they're working on a flat-8 powered mid-engined supercar to go up against the 488 and Huracan.
Also have a flat 12.
