    That's was kind of fun to watch actually. Not an exact science seeing that different cameras were used and some cars had aftermarket exhaust, but still.
    I don't care what anybody says, the 812 GTS still sounds really good GPF or no GPF.
    That Porto? That is not how a Porto sounds with a stock exhaust. That's how a Porto sounds with no cats though...

    348 is classic, longest crank in the bunch -- a bit temperamental, just like my buddy's

    What do you mean by longest crank?

    How long the starter “cranked” the engine before it fired up and ran.

    F8 and Roma sounded so sad. Makes me want to cry.

    It's interesting to watch. I think that there are a few of the older models that aren't that great. People are so upset about the 812 GTS (I don't actually think most have heard one irl) but it still blows a 575 clean out of the water. Is older always better? Not always. The F430 idle is a bit of a dull drone to say the least. The Dino sounds great and so does the 512 etc. Most are great sounding cars. I honestly think the F8 is the result of it being Ferraris first GPF car and them trying to figure it out. The Roma is just as generic sounding as the car looks. No surprises there. The Enzo is an odd one. It's a halo car, but to me definitely the one with the least attractive sound of the halk cars. Would have been much better if it sounded like a 599 GTO. A bit too much fart can.
