S2000 spec rally cars at full noise have, for me, brought in a new level of excitement in rallying

I think that most exotics would have trouble sounding as good as this:

There was a Ferrari F430 parked outside the local Pizza store last night.

It drew a crowd, and as the guy took off .....

OMG !!!!

Not sure if it's been said, but the Hemi 426 going off it's nut sounds the goods....
As well as the Holy Grail, ford 427 cammer.
Love the sound of the old flathead V8 you see in hotrods, they are an awesome sounding engine.

there's a cammed 7.0l W427 right near my work, one of the best sounding 8's I've ever heard. I'd kill for one. Would love to hear one of these stroked, links anyone?
