Glad to help Rick. :unibrow:

'Wagoons done right are cool, aren't they? Plus that wagon practicality can come in handy sometimes obviously.

Next door neighbor showed up in the "shed" driveway the other day with his brand new C --- 507.

I'd never heard of that model - but it's bad ass for sure. I'm not a fan of the C body but it was killer.

Sad news for AMG fans...the great 6.2L 4 cammer n/a motor is going away; to be replaced in the AMG C-class reportedly by a 4.0L V8 twin -turbo for the '15 models.

Referencing the Ferrari F40 video I posted..........Is that a bad thing? :_paranoid

Example: Porsche Turbo S 3.8L 6 with 560 hp and 553 lb. ft. of torque.

Sieg,

Well, as you know the old Z-28 was 302 cid.

The new one of course is a 427. :)

Driving the very highly regarded 6.2L n/a V8 in a semi-dated platform or a 4.0L TT V8 in the new '15 AMG C-class.

"Now many people are saying that turbocharged cars sounds crap according to what ? Lol? Too many different cars like that are actually considered super cars and beats."


"Well, according to me. I have driven the CLS63, E63 with the TT motor. I have driven the S6 with the turbo motor and a 550i with the turbo motor.

They all sound like crap but the Benz is the most acceptable of them. They are not in the same league as the NA V8. Never said they were slow, mind you, but the aural, soul tingling experience will pale in comparison."

[GregWeld]

My S63 Twin Turbo V8 sounded awesome - was awesome and pulled a hugely heavy car like it was a bullet shot out of a cannon… was a thrill to drive fast or slow.

My Porsche Cayenne Turbo V8 sounds like crap… doesn't pull anywhere near the way the MBZ - and while it's a nice "car/SUV" to me it's BORING.

Our "on order" Porsche is the GTS -- mostly because we don't need a turbo for Sun Valley's 25 mph speed limits -- but also because it sounds bad ass and I feel the low end torque makes for a better driving experience.

Streetkings new baby hauler! :ups:

Nice one but way slower than my current baby hauler...:action-smiley-027:

I loved that S63! Still the bad-nastiest sedan I've ever been in!

Sounds like I need to plan another "work trip" to the great northwet!

Edit: Or to Austin! LOL

[GregWeld]

I loved the S63 despite SW trying to talk me out of it!!!


AND I can tell you that SW's current Cadillac is BAD ASS TO THE BONE.

[Stuart Adams]

S 63. Big comfy and fast. Perfect for old farts like me.

[fleetus macmullitz]

Not sure if this is true, but it seems the pro-touring movement may have been influenced a lot from the whole AMG concept of modding stock non-performance vehicles and turning them into cars that do a lot of things really well and also look great.

But the late model 6.2L 4cammer V8 equipped AMG's still sound nastier than most PT cars IMO. :D

[carbuff]

When I was looking for exhaust for my Firebird, I wanted to find one that sounded exactly like my C63! I didn't, and that's ok, but I do love that sound... Fun to drive that car everyday!

[GregWeld]

My guess is AMG has a department devoted to getting the sounds just right. Ferrari has a department like that… dedicated to making sure a Ferrari sounds like a Ferrari.

The AMG is subtle around town and on the hiway - right until you make it bark like a bad dog…. but it's never intrusive or harsh or harmoniciky in the cabin.


If I wasn't moving and hadn't bought a dog I love more than cars -- I'd still have it "just because". Like Stuart said --- it's bad ass fast. And it's silky smooth comfort all rolled into one big ass old farts car. My friends begged me to bring the "S" if we were going somewhere. Funny - they all wanted to get in the back!! Only car I've ever had that was like that… nobody ever fought to ride up front.
