Despite the onslaught of turbochargers drowning out the sound of new performance cars, there are still a bunch of six-cylinder cars on the market today that make great noises. Which one do you think sounds the best?

The first car that comes to mind for me is the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. While most turbocharged V6s sound lifeless, raspy, or muffled, the Alfa's 503-horsepower 2.9-liter engine manages to create a throaty, joyful sound. Considering the block is basically a Ferrari V8 with two cylinders lopped off, that doesn't come as much of a surprise. The fact it drives so well is just a bonus.

Now we'd like to know: Which new six-cylinder equipped car do you think sounds the best? It doesn't have to be turbocharged like the Alfa, either - it could be something naturally aspirated or supercharged, if that's what you're into. Let us know in the comments below.
