Just looked it up - the variable displacement motor was not only in the 
V8-6-4  but is also a feature of the Dodge Hemi since 2004, on the
Mercedes 
V-12 in the 1990's,  and on more recent Hondas.   Of note is that some 
manufacturers turn off entire banks of cylinders and others turn off 
opposing cylinders.
