Have to agree with leaskey on this one for cars i have owned. My CTR with its Spoon exhaust and the Huge Quickshift filter it had on it sounded awsome from about 3krpm all the way up to the 9k that the Hondata ecu was set to. Still miss it to this day but doing 500 miles a week at high 20s to the gallon was frankly to much.

As for the exotica i still have a real soft spot for the noise from the lambo giardo.

Only heard a V8 and V6 so far... the more cylinders you get packed in the nicer it sounds.

For an every day car then it's definately the Subaru.

Our Land Rover Discovery is a V8........in 'drive 3' holding the gears with foot to the floor it sounds pant wettingly good! I would dearly love to have a Rover V8 engined car but the KV6 is fine by me in the ZS180.

If I had more money to play with I'd love the KV6 engine in the LDV Pilot or a Rover V8 mid mounted in the back

I am happy enough with the Disco at the moment though its going really good at the minute.
