Here is a list of the top 5 favorite engines available now according to autoweek.com.  Autoweek actually lists 10, but I thought I’d give you the top 5.

1.  Audi 4.2-liter V8 with 420 hp that is found in the Audi R8.

2.  BMW 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged diesel I6 with 265 hp found in the BMW 335d and BMW X5. Good gas mileage as well.

3.  BMW 5.0-liter V10 with 500 hp found in the BMW M5, BMW M6 

4.  Dodge 8.4-liter V10 with 600 hp found in the Viper SRT10

5.  Ferrari 4.3-liter V8 with 510 hp found in the F430 Scuderia 

Wow! These are all awesome engines, too bad the cars that they are in are REALLY expensive.  I guess that goes with the territory though. You aren’t going to get a Ford Focus with these engines. I just don’t understand, especially in our economy these days, how people can afford these vehicles especially with these great engines?  There must be some out there though…..
