Car you bought for the sound...
lol Has to be the scoobies I've owned (making the mistake of fitting equal length headers... then removing the same day... priceless)
Top of the list... VR6 Corrado with induction kit... 5,000k i third gear.... :notworthy |
S2000, T1-R single exit exhaust, 5999rpm is fun, 6000rpm has a funny click, 6001rpm is sex on the ears :D
|
Volvo S40 2.0 6.5k rpm, sounds like its about to blow up :D
|
My RS6 sounds nice, however my Scooby with equal headers sounded like a Jap sports bike, and the triple dellorto 40mm carbs with trumpet intakes on my Datsun 260z sounded like they were sucking the road in in front of you!!!
|
Honda ITR DC2 when in VTEC zone ... used to scare the old fogies (spell?) near me when punting past them!

Mercedes S600.. the very faint sound of a V12 and nothing else through the double glazed windows !!
|
I've just acquired a 1979 Merc 350SE.
Beautiful V8 rumble that turns heads and makes me hit the loud pedal for fun:). Lovely. |
Alfasud ti...with an Ansa exhaust..the original boxer rasp..I had one of these when I was 19 and used to drive around with the windows down at night listening to the noise..
Straight 6 BMW's also sound fab... |
Alfa 33 - start of the boxer engine thing for me !
MY00 Scoob - standard MY02 Scoob decat centre and scoobysport Honda Civic Type R with either simota induction kit on or Icebox on - sounded great when in the Vtec Zone Currently own - and bought for noise and praticality MY05 Scoob with decat centre and up pipe, sports cat down pipe - scoobysport exhaust my kick out about old Range Rover (V8) Vogue SE complete with gas conversion - but sound better when running on petrol!

Audi quattro Turbo (UR). Fantastic sounding engine on full chat.

My DC2 with full stainless including decat and Apexi induction kit..sounded like a motorbike and once somebody told me it made the hairs on the back of their neck stand up...if only it went like a motorbike ;)
|
My current Volvo T5. Apart from the easy tuning for lots of :D :D :D
That lovely 5 pot is a fringe benefit ;) |
Not bought one, but my brother has had a few V6 MGs over the years as company cars, and they sound superb. Still prefer the burble of my Scooby though... :)
|
Street ported Single turbo RX7 with external wastegate and screamer pipe:thumb:
|
Audi 100 H reg, 2.0 5 cyl with the cat removed, sounded fantastic.
|
The Clio V6 255 is the best sounding car I've been in to date and that includes, loads of Imprezas, TVRs and and the fantastic S2000. I was blown away by the noise :cool:
|
TVR's always sound great, as do Scoobs. But the winner is the Ferrari F430 with Tubi exhaust. Check it out on metacafe.com (search for Tubi) :eek2:
|
My old Mk4 Golf V5 with full stainless exhaust. What a noise!!! Better than a TVR IMO:)
|
I was just walking on a country lane..i heard a v8 rumbling in the distance. Took it about 5 minutes from when i started hearing it to it actually getting to me...when it finally got to me....FOOOOOOOOOOOOKIN HELL!! gorgeous sound and so freakin loud lol.
it was a V8 Vantage btw. :lol1: |
Peugeot 605 SVE-24, a 3 litre 24V V6 banging out 200bhp.
Sounded almost as sweet as an Alfa V6:thumb::cool: The car was a piece of sh!t, lumpy, notchy gearbox terrible handling & brakes that were either on or off:( It was one of the worst cars I have ever owned:nono: But my god what a noise:D My XR4x4 was bought partly because of it's sound too:) and the difference between the two is, eleven years later I still own it:D |
My m3 e46 now ive put milteks race cats and supersprint lightweight race rearbox on, sounds awesome at full chat
|
drove a v6 ford cougar today a bit crap but nice sound :D
|
Not bought
But i would have an old Dodge Charger!:thumb: Fekkin awesome sound! |
M3 CSL sounds rather nice! :)

I owned two 2.9's in the early 90's, one had the turbo technics conversion. Both cars had full Scrorpion exhausts (They were cool then) and they sounded awesome, the turbo version used to pop and bang on the overrun. Cheers Lee |
I bought the car... TR7...Purely to add the sound later ;)
Courtesy of Mr. Grinnall, life improved utterly with the installation of a Rover V8 and a stainless steel exhaust system with a large single bore backbox. :D:D:D Ah, my beautiful yellow shouty cheese-wedge... :rolleyes: |
currently the scoob with the blitz nur spec on it but a few years ago a CRX Vtec with an Induction Kit / SS Exhaust - use to scream every time it hit 5k rpm :)
