What's The Best Engine Sound You've Heard? by hanniball: 8:54pm On May 26, 2020
If you're like me, you love the sound of a good exhaust note, from screaming v12 engines to rumbling v8's most people consider it noise but car enthusiasts enjoy every bit of it.
I once had the pleasure of hearing a nissan gtr r35 (possibly straight-piped) in person, that's arguably the best v6 engine sound in the world.
I was wondering, petrolheads like myself what's the best engine sound you've heard in person?

Have you heard the Lexus LFA?

Have you heard the BMW E60 M5?

Have you heard the Aston Martin Valkyrie? This one would banish the spirit of any forced induction demon inside you wink

I would have put up links but I'm tired of fuçking with Seun's spambots. Use Google to hear what they sound like

The lexus lfa is on another level, closest thing to a formula car that's road legal. I'm not a fan of the looks though, looks more like a Toyota celica

The sound of this car is underrated, just like the 2010 lexus is250 people don't realize how good these cars sound with the right exhaust system

In person, the Hummer 2 with the 6.2L small block. cheesy

A CLS550 with a modified exhaust comes close, though.

Ah

It was a cool day years ago in Unilag, it had rained that morning so everywhere was calm; and later that evening, students in twos were about enjoying the cool weather while strolling.

I, being a renegade, was strolling with a fellow renegade, enjoying a chilled bottle of origin bitters and listening to each others musings.

That moment, we heard a low and heavy purr, almost like something heavy was angry and making it known, I thought it was a semi truck-why would a semi truck be behind me without even horning to alert me.

Then it went past me.

The most beautiful box head, the sexiest eyes and sweet geometric curves. God I wanted to have her there and then, I had to have her.

Till today, owning a G-wagon has been my dream. Even from afar, you know a gelandwagen is around just from the sound and vibrations you feel.

They are musings bro, relax.

Regardless, look up the schematics, the box shape didn't come out of thin air, angle and cirles were manipulated, I can't remember the exact math jargon for it.

FRUUUUUUIUUUUUUUUU

BTW, what you hear is not engine sound (which is deafening) but exhaust system (especially muffler).

Hardly different things.

Exhaust noise IS engine noise, just piped through to the back through the gas expulsion process. All mufflers do is give it some characteristics. Resonators have their part too. Headers, pipe material and size, etc.

Me too. That SUV balance die. I drove one (not mine) and I could feel the confidence behind the steering. Though it is not roomy, gas guzzler and doesn't come cheap to maintain.
