As the title really BUT you have to have heard it in real life (not on tv/you tube) and no race bikes/cars. Oh and it can be anything as long it has an engine so bike, car, plane, bus, etc. Sound clips welcome!

Car - Ferrari F40 because of the V8 roar topped with the addictive turbo sound Drooling

Bike - (haven't heard many) RSV 1000 because it scared the sh*t out of me as it rumbled pass Laughing

Favourite - Eurofighter Typhoon Cool

Yes I'm bored and have nothing better to do Smile

Big single! Used in anger or not, from the side of the road or being ridden, is pure aural sex. And that sweet burble on the overrun... Also an NC30 screaming on the track is sweet, or a baffleless cbx1000... But the single will always get my attention, especially in todays world where they are niche.

Norton F1

Buell with race kit

RD350LC (Very Happy)

Car wise? Well a lot of people say that the Subarus sound good, a bit like a V8. That isn't true, the only part about a Subaru that sounds good is the turbo.

I'd have to say a big V8 without many silencing aids has to be right up there...

For a car it would have to be a big block chevy V8 or Lambo V12 or fiat i5.
For bikes any large V2 or honda VFR800fi with quill pipes. Thumbs Up

The best sounding engine of all time? Rolls royce merlin. Thumbs Up

Actually I saw an Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione in London a few weeks back. That sounded the mutts nuts!

Also the Lamborghini Countach at the beginning of the Cannonball run sounds awesome! Smile

The best car engine sound has to be the BRM V16. 1,500cc supercharged V16 producing 600bhp @ 12,000rpm. Quite amazing for 1950. Shame it was actually a pretty crap car!

As for bike, probably either a nice noisy stroker or a Firestorm with unbaffled cans.

Other - Deltic Locomotive - something powered by two stroker engines which are 18 cylinder, 36 piston, triple crank and scavenge blown (a form of super charging to fill the cylinders as the piston falls due to the presence of a four stroke style shell bearing crank) isn't going to sound anything other then orgasmic.


Confused 2 pistons per cylinder? obviously im failing to comprehend something here!

Surely you mean 15,000cc and not 1,500cc Wink

More BRM V16 audio

Got to wonder how good the H16 that followed it sounded, about the only other engine that's ever sounded as evil was Mansell's old Williams/Renault V10

As for current day engines, I had the pleasure of playing a little symphony through Plympton following an F430 spider on my SP1, sadly the road goes right by the local police station there so we had to keep it a bit in check, still it was a pretty magnificent noise Smile

On the bike front, I'm torn between the geared cam whine in my SP1 and that distinctive clutch rattle from a big Ducati. The CBX1000 gets my vote as far as screamers go.
