Does anyone know why Maserati exhausts sound like they do?

Asbjorn · 04-10-2014, 10:52 PM

I always thought it was due to the V8, but then I heard their new turbo V6 and realized they somehow managed to make that engine sound nice as well. How do they do it? Any acoustic engineers present? All I found online was this (from a V8)

I may repeat the same question for the 6.2 V8 from AMG.

It's their niche, good question why no one is able to replicate.

The V6 in the Jaguar F-Type has an amazing sound as well.
