Look away after you start the video and try to guess which one was the Ford GT.

I think the Pagani has the nastiest most exotic sound of the bunch. Ford GT must of had stock exhaust, it sounded pretty tame compared to most. Looks like many, if not most, had after market exhaust.

They needed Ed Sims or Ralphies, for a fair comparison.

I don't care if your car cost $$$$ like many of those... don't be parked next to me when I start the 40 up. You will be very sad LOL.

Fubar as usual is so frickin understated that it's hard to ascertain the point he's trying to make.:bow

Roar?! Where? I don't hear any roars? I hear a few sowing machines.

Too many rides in your GT40 might be the reason...! :lol

Huh!

Seriously, other than the first 200 milliseconds of the Pagani AMG V12 start the rest are just plain pathetic sounding. When they sound that bad please leave them muffled! My weed eater has a nastier tone than anything in that video.

What's a sowing machine? Do they raise pigs in Colorado? Perhaps you mean sewing machine?

The C63 AMG's exhaust is just about perfect, I always change the exhaust of my cars, even the family SUV's, but when I got the C63, the exhaust was so perfect that I just couldn't make myself change it. Even though adding an X-pipe similar to the Accufab would wake the car up more but the factory tuning of the sounds is just so perfect for anything that is driven on the streets most of the time. Then add a cheap tune to reclaim the lost HP from the factory's detuning and you have the best bang for your 70 grands on any high quality (that excludes the CTS-V) high HP (510) family sedan.

The C63 does sound good stock. I had to remove the secondary cats and resonator on my E63 for similar volume.
