List of 'Must Experience' engines

Most V12s and V8s.
I'd add the V10 M5 to the list - I followed one a few miles out of my way once just so I could listen to it! :lol:
Obviously the S54.

Bike wise the best I had was a KH500 with Allspeed expansion chambers - it sounded just great (although I don't think my neighbours agreed).

When they first came out I had a fun, drive what you brung,, day Prodrives facility. There was a V10 M5 there. It sounded like a ww2 fighter, balls out down the main straight of the power circuit. 8) :thumbsup:

He couldn't drive though. At one point I was on track behind him in My Fiat Coupe and dispite the many car lengths he was taking out of me down the staight, I was able to slowly real him in over several laps. :D :oops:

The Fiat 5 pot Turbo, wasn't such a bad engine either. When it wasn"t in bits being mended :lol:

They really are fabtastic - I ended up right behind the one I followed just before a railway bridge where I usually drop the window and give my E86 some beans, but that day I dropped the window to hear that M5! I don't think it was too OEM - it looked like it was painted Yas Marina Blue after all - and it sounded amazing!
 
The engine I love is BMW's 4.4 Litre V8 in the M5 from 2012 (F10). It is still going strong in the new M850i, Alpina B5 and present M5. It is a superb, sweet motor.
