Best sounding cars/bikes

I have to say an air cooled porsche on the boost sounds way better...
As far as bikes, the Ducati desmosedici with termignoni pipes pretty well takes the cake....

 

I just think that while it isn't a sexy sound, air cooled boosted flat sixes sound so raw and ragged that nothing tops the cacaphony. It is controlled chaos going on in there, and it sounds incredible

 

I want to vote for the 2010 Nissan GT-R

 

I've never liked the sound of the ducatis, meh, personally i think they are over-rated bikes. I love the sound of my R6 with my graves exhaust system. Laugh all you want but shifting with the bike screaming at 16,000 RPM with a straight-piped titanium race exhaust that has flames shooting out the carbon fiber can says holy sh!t.

 

Hehe, it's one of my favs. I'm a big fan of Japanese cars. I've seen a few of these bad boys on the road here in NY and the engine roars.. frickin LOVE it

Unfortunately, I could never justify spending $75,000 on a car.

 

I like inline four motors in a bike, BUT to me there is nothing like the sound of a v-twin or v-four in amotorcycle to get my blood pumping. Have you ever heard an old v-max on the boil? NASTY!!!

 

I love Infiniti's signature tune of the exhaust. Whenever I hear that tune, I know for sure it is an Infiniti. No other car can immediately make me think of a certain brand or model just by listening to what's coming out of its exhaust. It's like a trademark.

 

I think it would be hard for anyone to argue this is not the world's best sounding car given the research behind the way cars sound:

Maserati Quattroporte: Statistically proven chick magnet! | The Car Tech blog - CNET Reviews

Maserati Quattroprte, hands down, no contest!!

 

It isn't hard to argue. I would love to see exactly what cars were included in the research. I wish he would have included the link of the study, so it would be better understood. What is the sampling too? 10, 100, 1000, 10000? Too many unknowns to make this really credible. Even the blogger said that he takes it with a "grain of salt".

 

Oh no, it's not about not having the money. That part is easily attained. It's just that $75K could be spent on other more important things.

 

i had a 83 toyota tercel tr5 hatchback 5 speed, the muffler fell off, it sounded downright bad ass.

i agree about the inifiniti's for the stock sound of a decent consumer car....the FX's sound great

the v series cadillacs are might nice too

 

lmao.

I agree with your agreement.

 

I was on the road riding my bike (colnago, not motorcycle) and just crested a hill, was tired and had my head down. I hear a "sport bike" (Ducati?) coming in the other direction, in angry mood. As it got closer, I lifted my head...turned out to be a Ferrari F430.

I like this Carrera Gt @ 2:10 and 2:40, 4:50:

Got to love a V10 at full chat:

YouTube - Audi S8 5.2 V10 FSi quattro with Milltek Sport exhaust


And there's something about the Audi/VW V6s:

YouTube - S4 with APR Exhaust

YouTube - Audi S4 APR Turboback- no muffler. Part throttle.

...but there is a special place in my heart for my 1.9L Corrado G60 w/Borla exhaust, which is nothing compared to the Dahlback beast:

That Dahlback Golf is a monster on steriods, having its period.

 

HAHA, as soon as I saw your first vid I went to find/post the top gear one. Get back to the site and you beat me to it lol....

 

LOL, I remember watching that...but I beg to differ. Alonso's Renault wasn't the "fastest" that year, but had the best TC system (was also an Adrian Newey design no?)...so technically, it was "easier" to tame than some of the other cars on the grid.



+1 on bringing back the V10...although racing would be more of a battle of $$$ again. That, or the 1.5L F1 Turbos.

Awww H3LL...was looking for a vid of the BMW 1.5L, and found this article:
