The BEST sounding factory car I ever heard was a '70 Road Runner 440 Hemi Six Pack. Listen around the 4:30 mark.

IMO nothing sounds better than a v8. The V8 ROARS when floored. V10 and V12 SCREAMs. Its almost to high for me to like it more than the V8. . And nothing sounds better than a CAMMED V8

The car in my signature pic. 1967 Gurney/Weslake Eagle MK1 F1 car, Spa-Francorchamps victor, 1967. Weslake V12 power. Sex on wheels. Can really hear it around 1:15. Dan Gurney is driving in the vid, and he's an old man now but still, those cars have to be driven fast to be driven safely. He was once arguably among the top two or three drivers in the world. Jimmy Clark once confided to his Father that Gurney was the only driver in F1 that Clark- the reigning F1 master in the mid to late '60s- considered his equal. It often rained at Spa during F1 races, and back then, they carried enough fuel for the whole race if they could manage it. Enough avgas for the race, in an aluminum (and titanium and magnesium in this car's case) car with no seatbelts, no aero or downforce, a useless roll-over hoop, about 400 bhp from a 3.0 litre engine, and rock hard tires that lasted an entire race, if not an entire race weekend. And they went 196 mph, and Spa was mostly public roads. Those guys had stones. Jackie Stewart crashed at Spa once during this era and got soaked with avgas, and they couldn't get him out of the car because the steering wheel was trapping him, and they couldn't find the right spanner to remove it. For some reason it didn't burn; he was trapped for 10 minutes or so. After that he crusaded for F1 safety. If you see photos of his cars after that crash, he has a wrench for the steering wheel taped to his steering wheel. At the Nurburgring, these cars routinely were completely flying with all four wheels off the ground at Flugplatz. Which makes sense, given the place's name. These guys were incredibly brave.
In this case "AAR" is not 'All American Racers' but 'Anglo-American Racers' as Gurney's F1 team was known. Those F1 and Indy cars of the late '60s are the best looking race cars ever made. I get chills from this stuff.

To the original video. That video is horrible. Normally that car sounds amazing. But that particular video makes it sound like a sears lawnmower from 10 years ago. The best sounding cars at idle are cammed V8 cars. Once moving...eh. The best exhaust ever is a modified countach. I forget the name of the exhaust but its a back view of a silver countach on YouTube. I'm on my phone or I would find and link it.
