The sound of 5.5-litres and two turbos

October 31, 2013

The Mercedes-Benz E 63S AMG is an utter beast and it makes the kind of colossal noise that leaves you in no doubt of that whatsoever.

To try and capture than noise, we attached a GoPro down by the exhaust and took it for a blast on a country road. This didn’t work, as the wind noise and the GoPro’s crap microphone ruined it. So we did it slowly, around town instead.

And the result is the above video, shot quickly before we headed out this morning. The speed is low (we tried to stick to 50, honestly…) but the noise is epic.
