Hey everyone!

I saw the video of Jakgoe starting up and revving his V12 mercedes and I wondered, what if we all put our videos here of us starting up and revving up our car?
This way we can get a nice collection of a lot of different types of cars doing this! :D

I will record my own soon! Please post yours here!

No videos of the green car revving yet (will post them when able). The silver car had glasspacks to the factory tips, all else stock.

@07cobaltgirl = I love the burble on the overrun. That will be mandatory on all my future cars. :)

Only car I've ever owned worthy of this thread sadly I don't have any more. I do have an idle exhaust clip and a clip of me driving down a dike road late at night, though.

This was my '73 AMC Hornet, factory 304 warmed up with a mild Edelbrock cam and intake manifold, Holley carb, and dual Flowmaster exhaust.

My current car, even if I had a ZZP exhaust and an atmospheric BOV, would sound like a moaning dog with a sinus issue.

Alright, here is the great, the amazing, Pleb's Mum's Peugeot!! (Sorry for my crappy camera skills, and for holding it the wrong way so there's black bars on the side... I hate it as much as you do, also, TinyPic seems to have stretched the video to fill the screen... -_-)

The car is a 207, completely stock. So, as you'd expect, it's not exactly a gargling beast...

I guess I should gather one of my car driving. hahaha If you think the exhaust sounds nice, you should hear the intake. ;)

Alright, alright, alright... Wouldn't want to be outdone by the Peugeot/Renault crowd here. :lol:

Starting up and "Revving" in a parking lot (didn't have my heart into revving because it has a really low rev limiter in neutral):

And to show you my POWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA (or lack thereof):
