...Alfa Romeo V6 engines come from another age... a passionate age, an age smelling of oil and gasoline. There's more to a great engine than sheer numbers: there's work, passion and ages of evolution. Today Alfa Romeo still has a wonderful V6. The 3.2 has all the characteristics of the classic Alfa sixes: it's raspy, aggresive and loves high revs. You feel 250hp under your foot, the needle passes 6.500rpm and the sculptured chrome, red and silver alloy beast roars at you... at such a moment, you know what Cuore Sportivo really means.

It's the fact that it's DOHC....that always makes engines a bit bulkier, especially V-block engines. If you look closely, the block itself isn't really that big, but the heads are bloody huge.

#1, That really hit the nail on the head. I like Alfa's philosophy on engine building; I wish all automakers subscribed to it.
