They sound absolutely terrible just going down the street at a steady 40 mph. Like an old chest freezer cycling on. That awful droning hum.

I saw a 458 yesterday and thought the same. They have terrible exhaust drone.

Kinda ironic and funny, I think. Supercars and hypercars only sound good free/piss-revving and accelerating at full speed; both of which can be obnoxious and showy-offy. :p

The only exception to that, are AMGs and Mclaren’s from my experience, for some reason. They just don’t drone while cruising at constant speed for some reason.

If I was in charge of a company that made supercars, I’d fit them with one of those valves in the exhaust that will activate a secondary muffler at cruising speed so they just shut up.

AMGs make zero sound at all while cruising.

Which is why i love big V8's. A proper rumble at any speed.

I have seen a Ferrari 458 and Aventador but not moving. I still have unbias there as I haven’t heard their engines realtime. Who knows the person driving it could have been doing some wrong....

(ie., that video of that other Lamborghini owner that apparently couldn’t afford a truck so he strapped a mattress he brought to the top of his Lamborghini)
