Definitely NA, so not a GT2.

Not an M5, not a G, doesn't have the unique tone ...

IMO, it's either a GT3 or Lambo Murci/LP/SV. Leaning towards GT3, sounds like a light raspy engine, not a behemoth twelve ...

Oh, and whatever it is, it sounds beautiful.

My first thought was a Gallardo of some variant, but it doesn't have the presence of a car with that may cylinders. Like everyone else, I'm thinking GT3.

Sounds like a gallardo sl..... or the 599 hgte to me. Wish I had roads just like it! Exhaust does seem to have a valve..... notice how audible it is on acceleration... thats why I'm leaning towards the 599.

If that's a GT3, I'm Thurston Howell.

I was thinking it was the 599 because there was a similar video posted recently of the 599 driving around the same track and it seemed like a good comparison to the ZR1.

after re-listening, I'd almost put money on the GT3. There's one blip that sounds so typically Porsche.
And it's too raspy for a twelve IMO.

Definitely NA P-car, any of their sixes sound like this depending on exhaust.

V-12 of some sort.

Probably the SV?
