People complained when we went from V10 to V8 too. While I don't think the sound draws the same emotion as a car screaming at 18k rpm, it is still a very interesting sound. Once everyone gets used to it I am sure it will be fine. I personally like that you hear more of the wheels now, but I would love to see the revs go up a bit, however to do that they would need to increase the fuel, which defeats the point of being more efficient.
