This Is The Best Tuned V6 Engine

Most of the time, V6s are far behind straight-sixes as the inline engine offers more of a natural balance, simpler design and easier maintenance. There are not as many renowned V6s, but the car community is somehow more aware of the Alfa Romeo V6 'Busso' than any other six-cylinder of such type. What makes it so special?

I had a friend in business school who owned a 147 GTA. The sound it made would have you singing Italian opera music.

Your production quality gets better with every video. Such a pleasure to watch

[escalade]

as an italian petrolhead and alfa romeo fan, this video caused me goosebumps

[miniz]

I love this engine, I worked at a Ford Dealer, little italian man came in with a 5 speed 164 S, had 211k on it and was still in good shape and ran like a top. They gave him 600 dollars as a trade in on a focus ST, you bet your sweet ass I slapped a dealer plate on it and took it for a rip! The salesman were ignorant and laughing at the "old red car" until they heard the busso rev and smoke the tires off, I wanted to buy it after that... They told me 3k, thinking back on it still worth it, of all m5s, trans ams, corvettes, gt500s, jaguars, I've driven.. The little high miles 164 S was one of my top drives ever, you just can't buy soul. I ended up taking the owners manual out of it which had everything! I would sit in it on break, still smelled like italian leather, I regret not buying it

[scuderiasenzasoldi]

As a huge Alfista I really liked your well made video. My Dad (also an Alfista) has a 82 GTV6 Balocco with some modifications done to it, like decat, tubular headers, beefier cams and so on. And that car shows me over and over again why especially the GTV6 2.5 Liter Engines are called „Violine di Arese“. Such a smooth well balanced engine with a Glorious Soundtrack.
Hope that I can own my own Busso one day.

Alfa Romeo V6 Busso is the best V6 engine ever made a true legend and unforgettable sound

[TheScorpionRMA]

Used to have a Alfa 156 2.5 V6 Busso. Absolutely glorious engine. Drank fuel like it was leaking it, but so worth it to hear that Busso engine sing its song 🎵

[zockerplay]

For the last 3 month now I am a owner of a 166 manual with a 3.0 Busso. I fricking love it! This Engine is just so pleasant to drive, comfortable at low revs for crusing and gloriously screaming if you exceed 4k RPMs. The 166 drives really not how you would expect a car from that class. Its incredibel sporty, the throttle response is instant and the setup even allows the back to stick out, no boring understeer like so many others.
Thanks for your great content!

[retrogamersev]

I had a 2005 Alfa Romeo 147 GTA a few years ago, definitely one of the greatest sounding V6s ever!

Sadly due to financial issues I had to sell it :(

[malcolmSC]

I remember a went to buy an Alfa GTV coupe. The owner started it and I heard that engine from about 50 meters away. It sounded glorious. I drove it too. The 3L V6 way too fast for ridiculous Australian speed limits. My only gripe with that car was I couldn't get comfortable seating position and it was meant to be a weekend cruiser. But the sound, torque and power is something that's forever etched into memory. The legends are true about this engine. No headphones can replicate the bark of this V6 in real life. Go to a car meet and listen to the symphony of this sonorous 6.

[TheVinylKitchen]

I owned a couple Alfa Romeo's in my life and miss them both.
I owned a 1976 Alfetta GTV Mario Andretti Limited Addition #5 of #150 made!
My little Alfa GTV had the 4 cylinder 2000cc motor.
A lot of fun until I bought a 84 Alfa GTV6. That engine sounded so fantastic and while not the quickest Car, boy
it's Roll on Speed while passing someone was The Best Feeling/Sound/Experience of any car or Motorcycle I have ever owned.
I have owned close to 30 Cars and Motorcycles in my life.

[karlos]

I had a 166 3.0 V6 24V and what a glorious rav happy engine it was! Glad my brother bought it and i still drive it some times! That engine never gets boring! That unique sound especially under the bonnet due to the chrome intakes are just so cool! It now has close to 300k and still the engine is very healthy!

[blacksun]

As an italian, I really appreciate your video. Great video ;)

[kotelypiesely]

I hate that you could have the more modern Busso engines with only FWD, just three years later after it was gone they turned around and made the brilliant Q4 system which was full-time and transversally mounted, with none of that viscous clutch crap every AWD uses nowadays because they can't be bothered to figure out how a differential works, imagine the 159 with a busso, that thing would wipe the floor with Audi's S4

[d-phoenix]

I am so excited you covered this engine, one of my all time favorites and possibly the only V6 I am truly fond of!

[MightyREVS]

Nice to see such a positive video about Alfa and the Busso V6, a Engine that is one of Its kind.
I once owned a 3.0 164 and may dad a Thesis 3.0, and this engine was the highlight in both cars. Nice Video !

[tonychavez]

I had 2 Alfa 75's in my life, and i will say those hemi head Busso V6's are some of the best of all time, the rear transaxle is bullet proof as well.

[marcinpasiak]

i have alfa 166 with busso ❤
amazing car

[SuperYellowsubmarin]

I had a 155 with the 2.5 V6. The looks were amazing and steering quite direct, but the rest of the car was average. Now the engine, it is hard to convey how deep the sound was, and how rev hungry it was, so that it made it feel so much faster than it really was.

[philipejeuceoututkache]

Without any doubt the best sounding V6 ever made, with the one from Ferrai Dino/Lancia Stratos.
