SL65, E55T, Pending S65
The SL65 is slightly louder than the SL600 at idle. At WOT is is even more noticable.
The Kompressor V8 sounds better than the V12's. I think a part of it is the muffling of the Turbo's
The best part of listening to the V12 is the starting sound. The car just barks when you first fire it up.
OH YEA!
