Default Car & Driver name the F20C
The best naturally aspirated engine of all time.

The F20C had titanium connecting rods, slivers of cylinder walls, and three levels of variable valve timing.
I didn't know it had 3 level of variable valve timing?

That is great to hear!

Definitely a classic or classic-to-be.

I believe that's a mistake.

Pretty awesome! Don't know that I'd agree it's better than a McLaren F1 or LaFerrari engine... but still pretty cool.
