In my eyes (and ears !) every 4 pot sounds like crap, i don't care how they are tuned ! Best noise from a car i've ever heard is split between a Panoz Esperante V8 Le Mans racer, a Pagani Zonda C12-S, Aston Martin DBR9 LM racer and the original Ford GT40 which i was lucky enough to witness not so long ago. They are real mans engines, not puffy Subarus and Honda CTR's - the sort of stuff you can hear beyond their pikey music down every high street ! Real noise begins with 8 cylinders above 400BHP !
