Anyone that’s a fan of musclecars/supercars/rally cars…what car provokes your nucleus accumbens more than any other with its nasty, mellifluous exhaust note?
I have a couple I really like. Post yours!
Boss 429 heavily cammed (wait til it pulls out!): Boss 429 "Tapping the Gas" - YouTube
Shelby GT500E Eleanor Mustang (beautiful car! those taillights! And that supercharger whistle!): Shelby GT500E Super snake Sound & Small Burnout - YouTube
This rich kids twin turboed Lambo Gallardo on race gas (these flybys are INSANE! Look how fast this thing accelerates! Wait for the flames at the 2:05 mark). And the car filming it is a stock Gallardo with “only” 550 hp: 1,250WHP Twin Turbo Gallardo INSANE Flybys - YouTube Pagani Zonda Cinque #2/5 loud revs - YouTube
So none of you motherfuckers has a favorite video of a car you either own or wish to own that makes mechanical music to your virgin ears? OK. Pussies.
Wait, I forgot: think Red Barchetta, Rush fans!
The 3-liter V-10 Formula 1 engines from a few years back. Here’s a Renault F1 drivetrain on a dyno.
I know you said cars, but here’s a great-sounding bike, a Ducati Desmodici 16RR .
Yep, that’s badass all right. Love that supercharger whine.
Wow. That engine redlines at 18,000 RPM! That’s a whole other kind of exhaust note, those F1 cars.
Was that engine actually glowing orange in places? Do they do that during the race?
I’m a small engine revved to within an inch of it’s life kind of motor head, so here is mine:

The low, slow rumble of a big ol’ V8
I love the sound that engine is making when it downshifts to go through the slalom cones.
Pretty much, yeah.
My 98 T/A with 3.5" Mufflex exhsust
Since this zombie has been resurrected, I really love the sound of a throaty inline 6, like the Jaguar E Type. I know, that’s very un-American of me.
