American V8 Muscle Car Sounds From the new Jeremy Clarkson video

Sorry, but the Ferrari sounds like ****, its Lamborghinis that sound great.
The sound of American Muscle V8 > Ferrari V8 By a mile!
The Nissan Skyline and Supra sounds way better than Ferraris IMO too.

I dont really care for any of these cars in the top gear clip. All the old musclecars sound dumpy and unpronounced. Hate me for it, but my favorite sound is an 03/04 cobra with a kenne bell or whipple. Not counting some of the very exotic hypercars.

FTW over the original clip.

The Mustang sound just has that burble and the hollow tin-like sound to it that gives me chills. Combine that with the perfect whine of a KB and that tops my list for engine sounds. Second to that is the sound of a loping big block.
