!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! You might need to turn up the volume a little, the Zoom seems to record quite quietly.

Hum, I'll see whether it works for me when I'm not logged into my account.

Seems to work for me. Try just searching soundcloud for 'Alfa 156 straight pipes'.

It's working for me on Chrome but not Firefox. Might be an addon I have installed. It sounds awesome man, the quality is fantastic? What's the kind of equipment you have to record sound so well? It seems like most people use terrible or just average microphones when they record in-car audio. That even goes for Drive, where I feel they could do better with their in-car audio setups, as far as recording what it sounds like to sit there in the car.

I use a Zoom H1, usually mounted outside and pointing at the exhaust (with a wind-sock), but for this it was stuck inside on the windscreen.

The full video here has it mounted on the outside. It records a bit quietly, but you can sort that out with manual level setting (something I haven't done yet).

The sound is something I really like about cars, and it's something that's often neglected. Even Top Gear don't do it right, and the rest of their production is stunning.

I agree that most don't do sound right for cars. And yeah, Top Gear does sound right. Always playing loud music or having someone blab on during the good parts. For me, sound is probably the second most evocative part of automobiles, after looks. Hell, if it sounds awesome, I can sometimes overlook a completely ugly car.
