Hate to admit it, but I like it. But not as much as I like the old flat 6 sound.

WRX down low, Porsche rasp up high. What’s not to love?

Sounds Better Than The Old Flat-Six

If they added more valvetrain click n clack then it would lend itself to historical aircooled Porsches of the past.

Sounds good to me. I like how it looks too. I think it will sell well.

sm70- why not Duesenberg? > K-Roll-PorscheTamer 04/15/2016 at 19:08

Not as good as the old 6, but still no need to fear the future.

Valvetrain clickity clack is nice as hell, when it doesn’t mean things are breaking. I love hearing mechanical sounds along with the engine and exhaust.

I forgot to add: It must leak oil.

honestly - a lot better than I thought it might sound. It’s quite a distinctive sound. A little Subaru-esque but more revvy and mechanical. That is still ALOT of money for a small turbo 4 sports car, but at least its nice. Or - how about Subie drops the WRX 2.0 in the BRZ - same performance less than 2/3rds the price.

There’s a hint of V-twin in that sound as it revs up. It’s rather unique and a little raspier than Subarus.

It’s no NA flat-six, but could have been worse.
