The V8 is simpler, but this engine packs a lot more moving parts into a small volume (not necessarily power though). There is definitely a German engineering vibe going on here that can make the engine seem more like a puzzle than a machine. Who else but the Germans would come up with the unnecessary mechanical complications to turn a clock into a cuckoo clock? Curiously, some engineering geeks like me appreciate it.
