I just don’t think they sound good that’s all.
@@dacmm You don't think much clearly since the Mercedes A45 S has a stock engine nearly as much power than both even when tuned in the aforementioned vehicles. Saying that B58 is simply better. It's a proper engine. Nearly every road going two litre four cylinder isn't an engine, it's just an appliance like washing machine or fridge. The VW has some dull sounding overstressed thing and the BMW has a sonorous silky six cylinder
