Are they a dead breed now?

Which models still have them?

They're a lot more common than petrol inline sixes....

Cadillac, as a random example off the top of my head.

Surely almost all of the big mainstream manufacturers have them?

We are hiring some sort of V6 Ford in Vegas. No idea what it is but it's a 2012 model.

VAG are still churning them out. Spotted a V6 4x4 Skoda Superb the other day, they must be rare!

Possibly a Taurus, maybe a Mustang. It's quite a nice engine, sometimes the auto box holds it back though. See if you can hold the brake pedal down and keep the traction control button pressed for 10 seconds, should liven up a bit

Pretty much every mainstream mid size car in the USA is a V6 petrol.

Isn't the VR6 still available in some VAG cars?

Lovely engines, got one myself :-)
