I just found my new favourite thread

Posted in another thread, but it really should be here. Porsche isn't the only one who makes a great sounding H6:

Some great NA goodness here.


MPZvideos are awesome!

its ok. I'm not really a fan of the deep throaty american big blocks. I prefer the higher pitches of the Ferrari's, Zonda's. Music to my ears.

Meh, I don't care much for V12s. Each to their own I suppose.

Ditto. I love the deep throaty sound of American V8's.

Here's a car which should make all of you happy

What makes the following one so unique is that it is a V12, and has that distinctive exhaust note, but also rumbles like a big-block V8.


And this one, probably the most addictive engine sounds of all time:

Still not for me I'm afraid.

I love me some high pitched V8 Supercar 5.0L V8 goodness.

I think a good amount of people tend to think all motorcycles sound the same because of the prevalence of 4 cylinder, flat-plane crank superbikes and harleys. So here are some unique and quite intoxicating 2 wheeled instruments of music:

The simply insane Honda RC166. An inline six, in a motorcycle that revs close to 20,000rpm. Think the LF-A revs fast? You have no idea:



More honda 6 cylinder mayhem, this time in the form of the brutal CBX1000. Sounds like a GT3 RS on acid.


sorry both of those videos have terrible audio mixing.

The newer model Yamah R1's have cross-plane 4 cylinder engines, so they sound something like a Nascar V8 revving to 13,000rpm. Awesome.



I always thought the Triumph Speed Triple engine sounded something like a Honda NSX V6:



And my personal favorite bike (I will own one eventually, when my skills are good enough)

 

[Grand Prix]

Have some Matra V12




A BRM V8 to keep the V8 guys happy

It's probably been posted here before. But I just can't get enough of this!

 

[Clark]

Might have posted this before but oh well it's awesome, best Porsche racecar and possible best sports racer ever made.



Another fave Group 5 car.

 

[zedextreme8177]

Best...motorbike sounds...ever:


This CBX sounds eerily similar to the Matra V12

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

I want to take a poked'n stroked CBX1000 engine and put it in an RC51 frame

 

[zedextreme8177]

^ Similar dream over here, building a bike with a CBX1000 engine would be my lifetime goal It's a shame the engines are extremely hard to find



No, that wasn't a Ferrari engine

 

[Liquid]

All OBCs of Tim Harvey except the crash at the end, which is Rickard Rydell

Video is wrong. It's 1995

 

[Beeblebrox237]

You must listen to this.
Just amazing

 

[motortrend]

^that sounds really awesome when it turns on

 

[zedextreme8177]

If all hybrids sounded like that TS030, I'd buy them without any problems!

As for this, if you don't want to watch the whole video, at least watch 9:08


9:08 = the most beautiful thing I've ever heard

F1 might be quicker but holy cow, dat burnout. Merica.

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

Can't even hear the Nascar after the F1 lights up. :-O

[Bopop4]

I want to find a REALLY good F50 video, but this will have to do.

 

[zedextreme8177]

So for the time being, I'll drop this here for you

 

[Bopop4]

Oh my god that GT F50 sounds amazing!
