Purely from a personal perspective, (and my previous ignorance about the comparisons you make), I'd rather have the V8 performance, and as I don't plan to have the car for more than 3 years (it is leased), reliability is a non-issue. Applying these criteria, does the straight-6 offer anything better than the V8, other than affordability?
In that case when you drive the car only while warranty-period then yes, the V8 one is a pretty entertaining and funny stuff, which also has a more pleasant exhaust sound than straight-6.
So i can even agree with you!
