Are V8 Engines Still a Good Choice in Today’s Market?

I’ve been weighing the pros and cons of picking up a V8 in 2024, and I’m curious what others think. With all the talk about turbocharged four-cylinders, hybrids, and EVs taking over, does the classic V8 still hold its own? There’s no denying the sound and raw power, but with fuel prices and emissions regulations getting tighter, is it practical anymore?

For those who’ve stuck with V8s whether for daily driving, tuning, or track use what’s your experience been like? Are modern tech and efficiency upgrades enough to keep them competitive, or is it more of a passion choice at this point? Would love to hear some real-world thoughts before making a decision.
