Tim there are few tunnels on the cross bronx expressway but its not the best highway. Then there's the lower deck on the GWbridge and my favorite the midtown tunnel.

Yeah, Billy not too many tunnels around here, at least that im aware of. I know of places were there are walls on either side, which is alomst as good. If you know of any good tunnels, let me know.

The best sounding 355s are the 1995 model year. 96 and up was changed and the sound mellowed out a bit. I do not own a 360 but I have heard them with tubis and they do not compare at all to the 355. I just put test pipes on mine with a tubi exhaust and the car sounds just like an F1 racer now. Can't get enough of tunnels now. I am always looking to pass under one a downshift a gear or two and slam the throttle. Pure bliss

Agree with Jay-had a 355--have a 360. The 355 is like a high pitched panic scream-the 360 is a deep throat sonorous roar.
Loved the 355 love the 360 more.

IMO the 355 is one of the best sounding cars of all time. Fit a proper exhaust and gunning the throttle is one of finest automotive experiences you can POSSIBLY have.
The sound of the standard 360, although nice enough, doesn't compare and can sound a bit waspy and weak especially at low RPM. Its a lot better at high rpm but still.....

YES!

The 355 SCREAMS.... the 360 GROWLS. Seriously.

I like the sound of the 355 better. I like driving the 360 better.

When I went to the F1 race in Indy I watched the Ferrari challenge race. I thought the 355s sounded a lot better then the 360s. Granted I have no idea what exhausts they were running. Tubi I would guess. Also I am not saying the 360s sounded bad. The 355s just sounded meaner.

I agree with Tino. However, I might add that the 360's sound isn't bad at all.

IMO, a big YES. 360's with stock or aftemarket exhausts do not sound as good as a 355. A 355 with Tubi at high RPM is pure bliss. I wish the 360 would sound as good !
