This article is uncited and has been since 2007 (per the tag), it appears to be a questionably notable modifcation of a standard V6. If nothing else it should be merged into the V6 article.

Keep I'm no engineer, but this appears to differ from a standard V6 (transverse configuration, firing order etc) and is therefore a separately
notable topic. Google returns more than 2 million hits, so even if only 1% of them are valid, it can easily be referenced.

User:Andy Dingley Please remember

WP:RANDY. This sort of waste-of-time crappy nomination is one of the reasons why nothing improves any more. Half of those commenting here could probably have used such time to do something positive with this or a similar article, yet they have to waste time instead arguing simply to keep what we have. It's not as if it's a rare engine either. Look out of my front door and I'll see one, I even used to drive one myself. You must have done zero per
WP:BEFORE before nominating this to remain quite so ignorant, then you dismiss those who are familiar with it as inconsequential fanboys.

You should consider adding sources instead of arguing with me... I can delete 95% of that article with the reason
WP:BURDEN,
WP:ORIGINAL,
WP:V so get the hell off this deletion discussion, stop attacking ME, and defeat my arguments(by adding sources).

So when you don't get to delete an article, you set out to delete 95% of them instead? Is that a theme to all of your editing? Do you find that particularly rewarding?

This must be a joke. I see "citation needed" but I can't see where and why those are needed (should the sentence "The Beetle RSi was the first production vehicle to use the 3.2 litre 24-valve VR6 engine" be proved for real??? That sentence should not be there at all, imho.). The vr6 isn't a further development of another engine, it's a complete different type. If your thinking was right, every type of engine is a further development of the first engine and every article should be merged in one only. So: V8, V6, V4, I4, I6, ... under the generic "internal combustion engine engine" article. Do what you want man, Wikipedia isn't a truthfully source because it's democratic and the Truth is never democratic. I save the page, before the mess up by TurboChargedChiliPepper, for myself. G-Bye :P
Keep: At the time the VR6 was revolutionary and there are literally hundreds of sources here, I've added a few to be going on with to source some material removed by the AfD nominator and will look at the rest of the article when I can after it is kept. Black Kite kite
