    Which car got the sweetest sound?

    Which car sound makes you fall to your knees and bow to the engineers of that holy engine...

    IMO no sound can mess with Aston Martin engines...
    The V12 Vanquish and the DB9 have a sound like...

    Diablo makes my knees tremble, CGT sends shivers down my back.....
    But the F50 brings me close to fainting.

    Haven't heard many in person, but as far as videos go...

    The Pagani Zonda has a great sound (Watch Top Gear, Zonda vs Murcielago)

    There's a video posted around here of a Gallardo with Tubi exhaust.... Nice.

    I also like the sound of Corvettes when they are well built up and with a nice exhaust system... The sound is just powerfull, scares you away

    Than it's got to be the 360 Stradale. Oh, and all Diablos.

    If you include race cars, it's got to be the BDA, the Stratos G4 and the CSL Batmobile (sweet straight 6).

    This saturday I went for a ride in friends 2nd generation M5 with full alluminium exhaust, and it sounded like heaven on wheels. Like my beloved Depeche Mode said, "I just can't get enough" from the BMW straight 6.
    Money can't buy you friends, but you do get a better class of enemy.

    sadly enough, the best sounding engine I can think of is the one from the infiniti SUV (it's sad, I know)! The dad of a friend I know has one, and when he floors it, that baby sounds hot. it really goes, too.

    I really do hate SUV's, but I have to say this one sounds awesome

    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.

    Race Car: BRM V16
    Race Car/Road Car: Ford GT40
    Road Car: Austin-Healey 3000.

    These are all from personal experience although I am yet to drive a GT40 or a BRM V16.

    I dont have a favourite overall sound ... i like to organise them into category

    Linear sound - Vanquish
    Crazy Sound - Zonda or Cerbera Speed 12 (The Speed 12 is possibly the most violent sounding car ever!)
    Gruff sound - GT40 for certain. If youve heard the new GT then you realise that its actually nothing like its predecessor .. the GT40 had a huge engine sound, the GT sounds like an XJ220 (which sounds like a Citroen Xantia .. really .. it does)

    I'd have to say Mclaren F1 gtr, the screaming V12's exhaust note cuts right through you and makes your ears hurt.
