    I'm probably going, but haven't decided yet. However if all goes right I can go AND meet a V8 Supercar driver there as well!

    To be honest i think it is but i'm not 100% sure. It can be loud and it can be subdued, It's got a knack of burbling but get it under ground in the carparks and i have set the of alarm off and i love to.. 2 weeks ago i parked next to a VYII SS Wagon starting the car and his alarm started to beep beep like a warning, then as i took off couldn't help myself had to step on it and off she went hahaha.

    the Silv's not deafening. you want deafening - try sticking your head anywhere near Claudia at 5,000 RP/M.

    heh. try a mini with 1970's-what's-a-muffler exhaust. it's like sticking your head in a metal bucket with 3 outboard motors strapped to your face.
