Nah, the L28 has been beat to death already. The inline-6 has a relatively
flexible crank and the long engine affects the weight distribution. The
compact V6 4-cam packages better and is more developed.

Hmmm, now I could see a Chrysler Concorde body on an Infiniti Q-45 chassis.
Slippery shape, rear drive, all that V8 horsepower and limited-slip. Not a
sports car, but I bet it would kick some BMW ass!
