Watching YouTube videos of straight piped Enzos and M5s with Eisenmann exhaust is always fun. But hearing it through speakers just doesn't do it justice. Hearing them in person is always better. So what is the best sounding car you've every heard? My vote goes to either a modified Lp670 I heard in Japan, or this V8 Vantage.

Gen III Viper. A neighbour of mine who owns a car dealership owned one for about a month. It wasn't downright loud, but it was deep and intimidating, and it'd purely howl when requested. Amazing.

The best sounding car? The answer is obvious - your own car after you revive it from death on the side of the road. Preferably in the rain or snow.

599 GTO I saw on Lake Shore Drive.

It sounded as if God was ripping the earth open.

This noise, right here.

Either a TVR Cerbera Speed 8 or a wonderfully tuned Pantera (which I have no idea what they had done to it, only that it sounded like the V8 had a direct portal to the gates of hell).

Some heavily modified Supra. Looked completely stock, rolled over a speed bump, then he stepped on it, sounded like heaven and flames shot out the exhaust with the loudest backfire sound I have ever heard.

Maybe this. I've heard it at events, this video isn't really enough to hear it.

Well for a street car, it has to be a Lamborghini Murcielago that I heard in chicago.

For a race car. Well there were the Can-am cars:

Or the Ferrari 312PB, such a glorious flat 12 wail!!

Lamborghini Diablo SV

I'm not a fan of screaming modern Lamborghinis. The Diablo is just so right .

The 1969 Baldwin Motion Phase III Corvette 427 I saw way back in at a Ault Park Concours. Hearing that beast fire up, lope around the park, and rev it a bit will always stick with me.

Ferrari Testarossa:

Must've been 10 years ago I heard one in full acceleration, but I'll never forget it.

Best car I've ever heard is hard to put my finger on. I've heard a lot. But my favorite overall were actually both Capristo exhaust cars. A v12 vantage, and a 575 Maranello. I got to ride in the Ferrari.

With all the exotic answers, I'm going plebeian. The video doesn't really do this car justice, the intake noise is brain scrambling in person for a regular 'ol street car with a few bolt ons.

Aston Martin DB2R race car. They started it on the lawn at pebble beach.

Sounds like a straight piped 330ci. Or is it an aftermarket exhaust?

To be honest with you, I don't know. I've seen the car run maybe half a dozen times, and it always tickles my jibblies.

Do I get the douchebag of the day award if I nominate my own car? Of course I do!

I was at this very race, and the hearing this Evora leaving the pit lane was something I won't soon forget.

Murcielago LP640 followed closely by 430 Scuderia, and then my old 75 suburban that had a 454(miss it so much).

There was a TVR Sagaris that absolutely gunned it coming out of a roundabout near me.

Good God they sound great.
