This weekend, the question came upon me: What is the best sounds made by a car?
I had an idea, but I came up with a short list of some of the best sounding cars in the world. Here in order from first to fifth is my list.
1. Any cars from this fantastic Ferrari/Shell commercial, because it captures the awesome sound Ferrari has been producing for over 50 years.
2. This 1968-72 Nissan Skyline GT-R has proves that one of the best exhaust notes doesn't have to come from a huge motor. Equipped with a 2.0Liter straight 6 motor, it screams into the stratosphere.
3. Any Aston Martin will melt your heart, but the race cars will truly turn your insides into pudding. Here's the Aston Martin DBR9 on Top Gear
4. Now, I haven't forgotten the Americans! The Ford GT-40 makes a menacing growl that would make you grin for days.
5. Lastly, at number 5, I have to pick the Subaru with its Boxer 4 turbo motor. It has a deep gutteral burble to its exhaust note, and is easily identified from down the block. Combined with the whistle from the turbo and its bypass valve, you have a sweet batch of candy.
This list is very open to my changing at any moment, because just like music, you get a taste for something different from time to time.
