And I get your point, I'm just NOT impressed with a motor that can't make 100hp/L NA when it's suppose to be a performance arm of a major German manufacturer. If 100hp/L isn't your cup of tea, that's fine, but I must also mean you have NO INTEREST in any of the cars I listed above... which would be sad for a car enthusiast.
And I NEVER said the AMG motor was crap. It sounds awesome and has tons fo torque the old fashion way, but there's nothing "special" about it in terms of tech or innovation.

I didn't realize we were talking figuratively about what constitutes a small/big block. Displacement has nothing to do with small/big block. Displacement is nothing more than the combination of bore and stroke.
You left this beast off your list of supercars that I don't care about. Its clearly one of the all time great cars according to you because it meets your 100hp/L criteria.
That's enough banging my head against this wall of awesomeness for one night.
