Astons are most certainly considered "exotic" cars. And preference is one thing, but I've never met anyone in person that didn't like the way a high-revving V8/V12 Ferrari or Lambo sounds. It's like a 3/4 F1 car. I like muscle as much as the next guy, but I can also appreciate a sound that I know = power.

My favorite car exhaust will be shocking to say the least its exotic it's rumbly its an infinity j30it sounds like f1'sss, like a f1 orgy lol. Weird yes, that it would sound that sweet but Carrera GT is my next choice since ill never get to see a pagani zonda in person.

Im in disbelief this guy doesnt like f1 sounds how is that possible then again my son doesnt like jelly lol.

If we are picking favorite sounds here....Mines a K20 when VTEC hits. No joke.

One of my friends has a 2000 Si and it sounds deeper then most V8s in vtec, people are just shocked at meets and the like.

A very close second would be an E39 M5s with straight pipes.

And I've been to 2 F1 races and that sound is just unexplainable. 18k rpm FTW.

I can't speak for how it sounded outside of the car (considering I was always driving), but my S2000 sounded pretty damn good from 6,000-9,000 when I did the ricer-mod and took the top off the airbox. I assume it would sound the same with a short ram intake. ITBs sound pretty good too

That will do it, trust me. It's like hearing a Top Fuel race on TV vs. being 100ft away on the sidelines at the 1000' mark.

You know what they say about opinions... . Tell me, have you ever been inside of an S2000 with the intake/exhaust opened up on a twisty road while it's being driven hard? Just out of curiosity.

If your a gear head like me, you like all car sounds... some not as much. 10000rpm mazda rotery for one! But I like Am Mus, and I like exotics. My father had a Ferrari and many many vettes. So ive been around a lot of diff cars. They all sound good, some sound better.

The Kind I like the Most?

My friend did that "mod" on his CR, sounded great, cat back followed soon.

The shifter feel of an s2k is amazing, the shifter feel of a CR....is GODLY.

I wanted an s2000 but just wanted more then 2 seats, i like having passengers lol makes everything more fun.

That statement makes me doubt everything you say about sports cars. The S2000 is only "slow" if you consider LT1 F-bodies to also be slow, and the handling is fantastic. How many real sports cars have you actually driven?

I haven't gotten the chance to drive a CR, but I sure would like to...

its hard to say it was good up in the twisties compared to my cobalt i had but its expected the 08 cobalt beat the s2k on the nurburgring by 17seconds. stock lt1s arent very quick either so...
ive driven z06, c6, e46 m3, and e39 m5 (mini cooper s full suspension and sti but both arent "sport cars")

To the OP...so some of my wish list may be a reality..Very kool!

Thanks for what you guys are doing..I know just how hard it is to get this type of stuff together...

Weve made some high quality vids here in hawaii..the problem is that its my 475 rwhp Viper against a 650 awho GTR..or cammed 515 rwhp z06 against a 600 rwhp supra ect., we dont have many stockers..

As well when you are driveing a bright yellow viper in a small place like hawaii...You dont really want super impressive vids floating around...Ive got one of 10 srt10's on the island...Not to hard to narrow things down....

truly appreciate what you guys are doing..THANKS
