Made it 4 minutes in....not a single car interests me....and the Mercedes v8 is one of the worst sounding v8’s ever. Man I’m getting old.

Yep you miss the Crash ,bang, wallop sounds of the 'Murican Cars &Coffee events

Wow, I can't imagine not liking the sounds comings from those Merc V8s.

I thought they were for old people. Or maybe just the more money than they know what to do with crowd. They remind me of the modern version of the 20s and 30s high end cars mercedes and bentleys which is what they are. Thats ok i will only ever see them on the internet

they burble and pop...yet still manage to sound choked. it's just a really unappealing dynamic for me.

I want my 14:42 back. That was awful.

Well, that was pretty much the whole point of it.

Same here. I think the M156 normally aspirated 6.2 in my former C63 and current E63 is one of the best V8s ever made.

The M113 in my CLK55 makes pretty cool noises (IMO). I call the CLK55 my "German Camaro"

I still think about trying to buy that thing off of you. Love those cars.

I think the Merc V8s sound great. They may not sound like a Chevelle but they are obviously also held to an entirely different standard and for good reasons.

However, the vid really shows that a lot of people at their core, are pretty similar no matter their station in life.
