C63 and C43 AMG noise volume

Hey folks,
Just heard a monstrous c43 coupe AMG accelerate past my drive (stock, i believe) and i was blown away with the sound and volume the v6 created. Having just ordered a c63 coupe, i am now feeling uneasy- as i cant comprehend how the c63 could possibly sound better or have more volume (including P-exhaust). Just wondering if my c63 v8 (non-s coupe AMG) would create as much noise as the v6 if not more...?

Don't worry i would be shocked if anyone could be disappointed with the sound a C63 makes unless it is the wife that is

You have made a very wise decision on the C63 not that the C43 is bad as its not , but the V8 biTurbo just takes things to another level and great for the pub i bet.
The wide arches and the aggressive looks for a start oh and that V8 is so sweet

4.0>6.2 this wasn't really a serious question was it?!

Jokes aside the C43's V6 sounds good but the C63's V8 has a deeper, thunderous rumble to it that the 43 can never match.

And as AMGC63S said, coupled with the aggressive bodykit that sets it apart from the rest of the range (including the C43) there's absolutely no reason to feel uneasy mate, you made the right choice

This thread came just about a week too early

​​​​​​I'll give you this, though... Coming from a 335, the c43 sounds better than other 6 cylinders in it's class.

i'm willing to do a straight swap if you want... or even better, if you have a pagani huayra, lamborghini huracan or porsche 911 turbo in your stable... i'll do a straight swap on those too... btw, my c43 has very low mileage, hahaha!

Well, some people like higher notes instead of lower bass in their sound system, and some people prefer the lean defined look than big and buff. So, i asked him if he's willing to do a straight swap... lol!

Having a C43, myself, I don't see where you will go wrong with the C63. The sound will be different but still very nice.
