The sound of a BMW M20 straight six. Old school, single valve per, no variable valve timing. The snarl as it climbs onto the cam is delightful and sharp. The burble on decel, old school as well.

I’ve developed a theory that multi-valve engines have kinda destroyed cool engine sound. I’ve noticed it because there are enough examples of cars before and after they went from 2 to 4 valve configurations but retained largely the same engine otherwise (Volvo’s redblock, BMW’s straight sixes) that you can hear it for…
That back door. What? How? Why?
What in the world is going on with those weird rear doors?
Or the two guys putting their faces into the soot? This photo asks more questions than it answers
What about the faces stuck in the exhaust?
I stand corrected.
Because car culture in America is still “bigger is better”. It’s why you can now buy a Ford F-250 and have it kitted like a Mercedes... Americans love excess.
That’s cause the average American is the same size as the smart
Jeez. So much hate in the comments. Am I the only one who thinks this looks good? It’s crisp, and grown-up looking. Does a good job of looking distinctly Volkswagen while also not looking like they just over-inflated a Passat.
How about a 2008 Mercedes CL65 in immaculate condition. $52,000 with a 612 hp BiTurbo V12, every gizmo ever, infrequent but expensive repairs. Really the perfect highway cruiser. http://m.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?listingId=419487433&endYear=2017&pageLayout=list&sortBy=bestmatcha&startYear=1981&…
