None of the V8's I've driven felt like they were as "connected" to the throttle as a good 4-cylinder is.
Yeah I know, how a car performs is more important than how it feels when you blip the gas, but I grew up driving 4's so that's the type of feeling I prefer.

Well...it may take longer for an 8 cylinder to rev up vs. a 4 cylinder, but remember you have half the power.
