Not to be annoying or anything....but the Mustang at the end is not a GT350, its a GT Fastback with a 390 V8. The GT350 was a Shelby Mustang, and this is no such thing.
@randomdanishman :P I knew that, I meant what episode. I've seen most of them they play here in the states, but I didn't know if this was from an episode I hadn't seen, or a special, or something Clarkson did on his own time...
You can see most cars sound good when they drive by and exhaust is pointed at you basicly, but the CSL is opposite. Thanks to it's carbon airbox. Also you could put in a different exhaust to make it sound that great whole time when it's coming towards you and driving away from you.
@ShinyHagge Well, as both (at least the most well-known versions) had the same Merlin engine then if it sounds like a Mustang it DOES sound like a Spitfire...
@rogerestunchien a V8 in a e46 bmw m3 csl?? I'm sorry to tell you that but the CSL has a INLINE or STRAIGHT 6 CILINDER engine. Google it and you'll see.
I don't like the modern American cars, much less modern Mustangs. Granted THAT one (even though it was smoking badly) sounds good, but i'd go BMW or Aston all the way.
that spitfire sound he says he hears int he mercedes is the sound of the pistons pumping just like the mustang, except the mercedes sounds like a freaking fart, the rest of them sound fantastic though
yes, the M3 sounded amazing, But man that mustang GT...wow, It just sounded pissed off and angry...and that snarl coming out of the back... it just sounded fucking mean and vicious. this goes for the sl55 amg...that gargle and snort,
Wasn't trying to put the muscle car down!!!! There an aquired taste!!! Some1 tried to make out that they could compete with a exceptionally good track car on a track!!! Which it clearly Cant!!!. Csl is a true Ferrari killer on the ring!! Muscle car is good at what it does best!! Sound and character!!!
Correct,it does depend on driver!! But if you have 2 very good drivers the BMW will blow the muscle car away,this particular BMW is designed to work best on track where a muscle car like that one shown certainly isn't!! BMW is far more alert,sharp,accurate,nimble,muscle car is a big daft pile of scrap with a droning big lump stuck in the front
@latbeast your making the muscle car seem like a scrap Lada or something. muscle cars werent designed for a track, more for a strip. (drag racing is simpler to design a car for, and cheaper in many ways)
thats bullcrap....it all depends on whos driving the car. I can beat ur BMW on a track with a 64 mustang with me driving it. theres something called skill. the douchebags who always complain that muscle cars cannot handle are pussies of the purest form.
I am biased coz lucky me have a 360 spider , but the Aston sounded the Best.
I have heard a Zonda f on full playtime and it sounded way better than the one on the vid , like a jumbo jet flying into a stadium full of marshall amps. fantastic
sound track of america lmfao american cars are shit as fuck there slow and there wank and there shit at braking and they way like 50 tones and they cant handle.
that fastback does sound the best IMO, but it really depends on wut engine the car actually has now a days people put all differnt kinds of engine in it
Well, it may be, but more important is that I see some nasty smoke coming out of the back of the car... there it goes again, american build quality and more so american build quality when it was at its best *lol*
I suppose it did escape you that that car is 40 years old and it's in Britain and the likelyhood that it still has the origional engine is practically zero? Back in the day when cars used carbs instead of fuel injection, you would expect to see some exhaust at full throttle.
It's 100% original, it's Hammonds. you see it in a later episode when they review the new shelby gt350. Of course, it only makes 160 rwhp now but it is still flawless in every other respect.
He used to do lot of reviews on American cars and their automotive racing stuff. He was fascinated by the lunacy of those monstrous V8s and their thrill.
But then the "health and safety people stuck their noses in" and fucked everything up. The cars became more and more boring.
He couldn't with that reality and got really pissed off. He had high expectations. His expectations were not satisfied until very recently with the Z06, Viper and the ZR1.
The Mustang sounded like an old WWI or WWII Bomber flying overhead and the V8s and V12s other than the Ferrari and the Aston sounded like Fighter planes whizzing by!
