I am absolutely in love with this car. It would be great to be either Jenson or Lewis.

What??? that is a great sounding car bud!! but different strokes for different folks men but the sound of that car above 7k rpms must be crazy and with a redline of 8500k to 9000k (i forget what it is) I'm going to need a change of pants every time I hear it.

I prefer the sound of a high strung NA V8 like that of the Scuderia or the Spyker C8. This is a bit too muffled for me. Still, from what I could hear, it wasn't too shabby.

For being a twin turbo engine I think it sounds lovely. Compare this to the Porsche TT, the Porsche sounds like a vaccum cleaner.

Seems appropriate that they would test their cars at Goodward when Bruce died testing the Can-Am there.

Like the styling. Engine sounds like an Aston with too many mufflers. Hate the flappies.
