Crazy guys, even crazier car. The C63 sounds absolutely fantastic!! It sounds just like the SLR, but without the supercharger wine.

Re: C63 AMG Camo, but caught, NEW Video...

The sound alone just eats the competition alive. I don`t know of anything this small sounding so huge and powerfull!!

Huge brakes, thay are needed here!
I hope AMG works their track magic on this beast. We should know now that thay are very capable of doing it.

Re: C63 AMG Camo, but caught, NEW Video...

Won't the 'filmakers' get sued for this or something? Or at least fined?

Great scoop nevertheless. The driver in the C63 must have gotten so irritated with them following him around!

What a sound. That big 6.3L engine has all the potential in the world. Wait until tuners like Brabus gets their hands on it.

Re: C63 AMG Camo, but caught, NEW Video...

To me all V8 engines almost sound the same. They all have dark and loud sound. Its a little bit sad see to the I6 engine in M3 E46 being replaced with a V8. Now the new M3 gets a V8 just like many other cars.

All V8s couldn`t sound the same, theres no way.. We all have our opinions but I`ve said it before. when you increase the bore of the cylinder the sound becomes much deeper and louder!! like the M156

smaller V8s with less bore sound very light.. anything under 4.5liters in a V8 is not going to impress in the sound department.

Besides that I wouldn`t get upset over the M3 getting a V8, it was needed and the sound isn`t missed, both engines sound almost exactly the same.

I didnt say exaclty I said almost. A I6 is more unique than a V8. When your hear a V8 you know its a V8-.

Re: C63 AMG Camo, but caught, NEW Video...

lOl, bore, it`s all in the bore because bore plays with the air being compressed! Compare the Pagani Zonda AMG 7.3liter V12 to the 5.9liter V12 in the S65, the sound difference is huge!!

As for I6 being unique.. I`d say thay are "outdated"

Back in the late 80s is when the in-line design was popular.. the design serves an excellet balance property that a V6 can quit master because it`s short crank-case. Todays most car companys are using the V design.

That C63 does sound awesome. Those guys were too funny. "AMG brakes bite like snakes" LOL

GTA is right. Bigger bore means deeper sound. Listen to the Corvette 7L LS7, it's nuts.

Re: C63 AMG Camo, but caught, NEW Video...

despite the relative small bore of RS4 V8 it sounds like a mofo
i guess exhaust setup has alot to do with it also

Sounds great looks great but I cannot put away the king of sedans (RS4) for now. We shall see after it is released and tested.

Re: C63 AMG Camo, but caught, NEW Video...

The sound is deep and muffling you like I want it. It gives it a unique character. The M3 and RS4 have high reeving engines pushed to the limit creating a screaming mechanical noise.

Outdated? I think you are forgetting all the engine awards that BMWs 6-cylinder inline engines have got. The reason why most car manufacturers use V6 engines is because most car manufacturers also make FWD-cars. Like they say in the good ol' Wikipedia:


Quote:
Usually a straight-6 was used for engine displacements between about 2.5 and 4.0 L. It was also sometimes used for smaller engines but these, although very smooth running, tended to be rather expensive to manufacture and they were inevitably physically longer than alternative layouts.

...

Straight-6 engines were historically more common than V6s, mainly because the length of such engines was not such a concern in rear wheel drive vehicles, but also because V6s (unlike the crossplane V8) were difficult to run smoothly. The widespread use of front-wheel-drive and transverse engine ("east-west") configurations in smaller cars saw that the shorter engine length of the V6 became highly desirable, and currently most six-cylinder engines are made in the V configuration.
