I'm a huge fan of the internal combustion engine and love the sound of a nice one. There are many that over the years have made me think well thats amazing, music to my ears. I'd like to share a few and join in the fun and show us your faves. I'll kick off with bikes as they are my main love but cars are just as awesome so V8's are more than welcome, no diesels!!!

So you prefer WOKKA WOKKA WOKKA to WHINE BUZZ SHAKE RATTLE WHINE
Counter-rotating-death-banana! Tis a cool noise, I'd agree. Had a Merlin fly uber-low past our house the other day, was impressive, but not as good as the chinook.Boardman Road Comp '08

I had a very interesting flight on a Merlin a couple years ago, top flying by the crew talk about a roller coaster ride.

bobagg the CSL sounds SOO good! I remember someone bringing one into one of the hangars at Kinloss when I was working there. The noise of it starting up and leaving the hangar was amazing!
Can't believe no one has mentioned the mighty Merlin engine in the spitfire!

any straight-six BMW, and the Rolls Royce Merlin!
and as for the chinooks, when you have them flying over your office 20+ times a day, it gets kind of irrating - especially when you're on the phone!0 -
Some great sounds posted there
If you like V8's try this beast, Judd V8 10,000rpm sounds amazing, the noise it makes from a standing start at 1:40is just pure music of the highest order.
