6SPD_FTW no offense, but your logic is flawed from the start. "more power = more noise" that is not necessarily true.

I hope people dont misunderstand me, I'm not arguing whether i like it or I dont or whether you like it or you dont. All I am saying is that the motor makes a lot of noise and vibration at high rpm. I find reviewers' "pickiness" about the coarseness of this motor perfectly understandable. The motor should NOT feel like its going to spin itself apart at high rpm. There's no excuse for this. For those of you that say "its a sports car, it comes with the terrictory" I beg to differ. The GT3RS is much more of a sports car, almost a dedicated track car and even past 8k RPM that engine is completely smooth.

It may have something to do with the VVEL, no doubt about that.
