it sounds like a rifle cracking


I think I'll be checking the performance exhaust option on the C63...

Cars.
Well, so much for 'not sounding like an AMG' and the M156. That's perfect. Great job by Mercedes.

As I've always stated in my previous posts on this topic you all never had anything to worry about, and when you get to experience it in real life I doubt anyone will be disappointed or miss the previous gen N/A engines not only for the sound but the power and torque that come with modern high tech forced induction

When I saw videos of the C63 on the track - it snaps like a lightening bolt cracks when it first hits the ground. Absolutely love it. I cannot stand the BMW farting! Doesn't sound right or appealing at all.

Audi S3...gone but not forgotten
Although I'm sure the AMG GT and new C63 (with PE) will sound great in person, remember that the of the GT is taken inside a relatively empty building with good acoustics.

You could find interesting the sound at idle here. Just a short example of what we can expect.

Here is some more V8 music.
This is what the C63 will sound like...

The 911 has the engine in the rear, a poor compromise chosen only because Dr Ing ( hc) F Porsche had some vw chassis laying around
Wt dist 35/65

The GT is front engined
The long nose allows the engine to be behind the front wheels
Wt dist 45/55
