The V6 FType sounds great too
The Aston sounded nice at the end. And of course the Ferrari. The Germans sounded a bit manufactured and underwhelming. F-Type sounds like the roar of a big cat. It's awesome!
Thanks for another great comment. I totally agree!
Not just the v8 the v6 also sounds unreal compared to most cars on the road, just really knocked the ball out of the park in the sound design department for these two.
I simply love the sound of the F-Type R. I'm a Yank in the US who lived in England and West Germany for several years in the 1980s. While there, I owned several cars, not the least of which was a 1976 XJ6. It was a beautiful, beautiful car. Over the course of my 60 years, I have owned almost 80 cars, the vast majority of them, irresponsible V8 4, 5 and 6 speed manual cars. Today I own two 5th Gen Camaro SS/RS cars. Of all the cars I have owned, the C5 Z06 has had the best exhaust sound, followed up by my 09 Mustang GT. The F-Type R kills them both, hands down. I have started looking for one of these beauties, but here in the US, they are hard to come by at a fair price.
Another great video, sir!
I couldn’t agree with you more. One of the main reasons I bought one!
I was beside one in my work van the other day and a guy was revving stoplight to stoplight, I was like damn! what a growl. I'm in South Carolina so definitely more Vettes, chargers and challengers around here. Looked it up, nice explanation
Excellent video. You just convinced me to buy an f-type.
Great choice and happy driving!
the Mercedes just sounded like it was taking some big fat farts especially with all those crackles lol 😂😂😂 at 3:30
The Jag 5.0 sounds amazing, but you forgot the NA 6.2L AMG engine. It might be the best sounding V8 ever.
Have had one F Type spontaneously combust (threw a rod), and brought another because of that glorious exhaust. Ive owned MUCH faster cars, but the visceral rage of the F Type v8 gives goosebumps every damn time. The supercharger is there, but ive never noticed the whine that you get with Hellcats/GT350s etc.
The 458 is also quite special but not worth 4 F Types IMO. The only other exhaust that gave me them feels was a Brabus tuned Mercedes v12. Props to Jaguar, the XJ220, XKR, XF etc were nice but the F Type came outta nowhere
I've had 3 XKRs, from the 4.2L to 2 with the same supercharged 5L of the F-Type. On the 4.2L you could hear the supercharger whine which I loved. It had that bark and deep growl of the Jaguar, but also that slight whine of the supercharger that is so addictive to hear. On the 5L, they used a different type of supercharger and supposedly put a silencer in the engine compartment to reduce the whine because it was deemed to be too annoying for drivers. 😢
I'd love to get it back; supposedly some cheap modifications like a different air filter can help return some of that noise.
@@RyneLanders Supercharger whine, turbo wastegates and exhaust valves should all be owner adjustable at this point. It may be another hundred or so lbs but these are the last of a breed, the hybrids and EVs are coming and the cylinders are disappearing :(
Owned a Plaid and of course the launches were insane, but as a pure drivers car the lack of engine noise/smell/vibration/feel etc gave a wooden impression.
Having the ferrari flat plane crank should have also included the C8 corvette ZO6 with it's flat plane engine. But the are very different high-revving architectures than the Jag
Love the Jag and agree with most everything you said. That being the case I see the Camaro ZL1 didn't make an appearance. Also, (not a Mustang guy at all but) the Coyote engine you had the clip of is definitely not as good but any test for the best V8 sound ever has to include the Predator & Voodoo engines of the 500GT & 350GT. I don't overly care for the cars but the engine sound on those two is biblical.
Your spot on! F Type 1st and then the Aston…
Thanks Jason! The dream is to upgrade to the Aston! One day 🤞🏼
@@MrGB_UK , your just like me. Initial dream is to own an Aston, but can’t afford it. The only years I could afford is around 2007, but then being Aston, worried about high maintenance costs being an older car. Here in Canada near Toronto, very few pickings of actual dealers. So, I fell in love with that F Type, a sister car designed by the same man, dealers in almost every large city if I get stuck on something. For my V8S, I do all the maintenance myself anyway. Since F Types are stopping, down the road just might be an Aston.
What camera do you use?
Only thing they can beat the F-type R is the audio sound system, Period.
I have the super sprint complete race exhaust system on my 2016 F-Type R..the stock R exhaust is a tame kitty compared to the race exhaust.
Great video. You mentioned the Aston V8 vantage and the Ferrari but neither of them are anywhere near the f types price. You can buy a used f type from 25-60k. The 2019 vantage (with the new shape back) is 82k used on autotrader at it's cheapest. I assume that's the one you're talking about
It’s a tricky one to quantify. A fully specced R could run you £110-120k. You can get used examples of both the Ferrari and Aston for less. They would be a lot more new, of course. Arguably you are not then comparing apples for apples, but if you were by chance walking down the street with £110k in your pocket (lol), you could arguably end up at home with any of the three
@@MrGB_UK what I mean is you're comparing the exhaust sound only. You said "new Aston" which tells me the previous gen didn't have such a nice exhaust. I assume you mean 2019+?
Given that fact you then look at the price of the one you're talking about for the purpose of your comparison and the price gap becomes huge. A V8 f type has the same exhaust at 35k as it does at 60k (used) but at what price point does the Aston vantage you mention come up used?
Had the V8 mustang and sounded slightly weak when stock like this video but once I had a h pipe and roush exhaust fitted sounded unreal
I have to say, the best sounding exhaust I ever had on a car was on my 09 GT. It was after-market, however.
im getting my SVR straight piped and resonate delete next week ( as well as stage 3 pully's/maps /throttle and auto remap ) soft limited stock my iPhones db meter had it at 120 db - will be interesting see how loud it'll be after mods - if your interested ill let you k now the difference :)
post a video of the sound bro
I also have an ftype r pre opf filter. I'd say the tone on the ftype is a differemt brilliant from maserati or 458. The Maserati is ferrari derived. Ive driven the 458 and I'd say the theatre, crackles and, for want of a better phrase, obnoxiousness of the ftype r isnt matched. However the best sounding car for me overall is not a carrera gt or an LFA. Instead I'd say the 812 novitec nlargo as driven by seenthroughglass on a video. That is insane
F Type💪🏻
The F-Type V8 exhaust note is undoubtedly the best. My V8S always makes me smile especially in a tunnel with the roof down.
I also have a V8S, now with stage 3 Velocity now up around 660. The V8S is a underrated version, missed due to everyone going for the “R” status. Same in every way. Love it!
@@jasonmorecroft7764 660!, Good Lord, that must be fun. The R is definitely a great car, but I enjoy the RWD "Purity" of the S
We need a race between c8 and jag
For me aside from the f type I love the aston martin vanquish s. Ferrari sound leave me cold
I've had a flat plane crank V8 Ferrari, 3 Jaguars (2 with this same supercharged 5L) and driven the C8 Corvette and the latest generation (prior to this new one) Mustang GT.
The Ferrari's flat plane crank V8 is the best sounding engine I've ever heard, hands down. And, the earlier Ferraris had better sounds than the 458 IMO - the F430, 360, and notably the F355 which has been called the best sounding car ever produced by more than one publication. But a flat plane is pretty uncommon. Among these more typical V8s, I have to agree that the Jaguar engine js the best one I've heard (which is a big reason why ive had several). I'd also give a nod to Lexus with their NA 5L V8, particularly in the RCF. I've driven several of them and have friends with them. In stock form it's a bit underwhelming because Lexus has to maintain that semblance of Japanese businessman refinement, but a titanium exhaust opens it up and it screams with the best of them, all throughout the rev range.
I rented a Corvette C8 and drove it all throughout the Rockies last August and it had the most disappointing exhaust I can recall in a performance car. I tried all of the performance modes to open it up, to no avail. It only really became active at the higher RPMs, right before you have to switch gears, which made it disappointing off the line or crushing through town. None of my Jaguar's or my Ferrari had this issue, nor the RCF with the aftermarket exhaust. It was so underwhelming.
YES. 🐆
Jags and Aston V8s are similar in the fact that they sound awesome in my opinion.
Ferrari also very nice, but I believe a different cylinder firing order hence the very different tone from the exhaust.
Very interesting about the firing order. I had no idea that was why the sounds differed! Queue me getting lost in a rabbit hole for hours researching that, now! 🤣
@@MrGB_UK Its not due to the firing order, its due to the Ferrari having a flat plane crank, and the others have a cross plane crank. A cross plan crank will create the traditional burble, as it causes pulses of exhaust gas that, well, burble. A flat plane crank like in the Ferrari creates a really even exhaust gas pulse, hence why it sounds like it does.
In my opinion....the best v8 sound is the alfa romeo c8 competizione
I love f type a lot V8 as well as V6 they are truely special. But bro I am baffled you didnt mention Shelby GT350. I know it doent pop an bang but that note is magical, like a demonic rusty chainsaw. If I had the money it would be between GT350 and F type. They are diferent but god I love them both
That’s a good shout! A great car 💪🏼
Smoking a bit on start up there.
A tad. It's unburnt fuel in the exhaust. Nothing to worry about (I hope!!)
Aston Martin Vantage GT8
The F-Type is the best V8 sound hands down.
On a side note, which Jaguar Breakfast Club are you going to next? My friend Rob and I are planning to go in convoy with the F-Types 🔥
Hi Dan. Next one will be Supercharged Saturday at the British Motor Museum. Will I see you there?
@@MrGB_UK awesome. I myself won't be able to come to this one but it's good to know you find your way up these parts. I'll probably go to one sometime in July if possible. I'd love to hear and see your car in person. It's almost perfect in my eyes
@@MrGB_UK afraid not mate! I thought I was free but turns out I’m not now. I’ll be putting the following one in my diary nice and early so I can make that one.
@@LagunaLeonhart thanks! I’ll definitely be up there beyond June and would like to meet you! Hopefully we’ll get the chance soon 👍🏻
Hi, your car looks fantastic, though I would prefer it without the fixed spoiler. The rare Eiger grey colour is great and the inside too. The Ferrari you've compared is not a 458 Speciale, but a 458 Italia. The Speciale has two separate side exausts, while the Italia has three in the middle. I've owned and driven an Italia for 4 years and 40.000 km (almost half of that at the Nurburging without a single issue) and it sounded glorious especially at very high revs (>7k rpm). Since 2015 I own a Speciale: I've driven it
A Nissan Leaf is quiet.
Sir, the F type R ( I have a '17) can be totally reserved with no V8 drone or burble when not in dynamic mode. You can daily it easily and quietly.
@liff Thank you Sir for your specification. That motivates me much more to go on with my purchase.
I am 61 and own an 18 F type R. That car has yet to wipe the grin off my face. Cheers from snowy Alberta, Canada.
@@randalhuseby3803 Thanks for your answer. Due to tax reasons I finally abandoned the idea of buying an F Type R and bought a Toyota GR 86. Quite a different car, but fun to drive
JAG!
What about an AC Cobra ?
The jag and the 458 are the best.
F-Type wins but just. The Corvette and the Ferrari are the challengers for me but the F-Type suits my personality best as it's an absolute mad hooligan of a car 😄👍
Couldn’t agree more! There’s lots of good cars out there and it was hard to narrow it down
@@MrGB_UK you are right, I was looking for 2 years thinking what to get, M5, M4, Maserati, C63 then once I realised I could get a 2 seater (if I also keep a 5 seater practical car) there was no competition, F-Type all the way! 😁
GT350 F458 C8Z06
Everyone thinks my ftype r v8 has an aftermarket exhaust .they Don,t believe its standard ..but I have it in dynamic all the time 😂
Btw, it is the 458 Italia not speciale
Thanks! I get a bit lost when talking about Italian cars! 😆
Best sound TVR CHIMAERA 500 de cat,
Mines a v8 unfortunately it's the new shape so not has loud has yours dame
F type is the best sounding V6... V8 has a lot more competition
I can't understand what all the hype is with the Jag sound, I love Jags I drive a Jag but to me it sounds like a tarted-up Corsa when stationary revving the nuts off it, it sounds too raspy and that horrible popping sounds like some Chav having his car mapped for popcorn or whatever they call it, of course it sounds better going down the road. I'm not a fan of Ferraris to me they are overrated but the exhaust in this video sounds better than the jag.
The F Type V8 does have the best and loudest sound on the market, together with Ferrari and Lamboghini! Mercedes, BMW and Audi does not know how to make sound!
What the fuck are you on? The old C63 W204 sounds even better than the F-Type and the W205 C63 4.0L + E63 5.5L is probably the best sounding V8 Biturbo engine.
The pops and bangs are over kill... If I bought this car I think constant poppin and banging would get annoying. Odd one here because of overrun is fine.... Also you damage your cats and will need to replace them again. ASTON V8 is like 78k plus for used
You can calm the popping and banging down - the exhaust valves can be closed and it's an entirely different car. Agreed regarding Cat damage :(
I think it sounds terrible.
😂😂😂
Only thing that sounds better is a v12 Ferrari engine!
Again I’m not selling my Ftype v8 it makes me smile to much 😂
And can’t afford a Ferrari v12 🥲
Agreed. On both counts! 😅
