activate the exhaust flaps fully from the off Explanation: "Of course, the driver can opt to activate the exhaust flaps fully from the off, using a button on the centre console. The car burbles more at idle, growls under acceleration and roars at full throttle." See my out-loud musings in the discussion box if you can be bothered. Basically, the idea is for the exhaust to make as much noise as possible, even at low revs. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2018-06-08 18:10:11 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Or "at idle/low revs" if you don't want to plagiarise someone else's rather stylish writing, which is what I've done. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2018-06-08 18:15:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Then you're plagiarising me instead. But that's OK :-) Reference: http://www.evo.co.uk/mercedes/amg-gt/16089/mercedes-amg-gt-t... |
