And your reasons?

Ferrari's flat-plane crank V8s do sound incredibly like riced four-bangers under low load! Changes a bit when the impulses overlap & the exhaust valve opens.

 

I've yet to hear a Ferrari V8 that sounded much like an S2000... The only V8 i can think of that sounds like a four pot is the Esprit V8 TT, and an S2000 sounds far better than that!

 

Just going back to Harris, it seems like he got a lot of the reviews to do in this months issue, and Catchpole has been bumped down a few pegs

Will be interesting to see if they keep it that way.

 

Picked up my copy today.

Great to see the chose Skye for the COTY test. Did a road trip there in 08 and again this year. Fantastic place

 

[QUOTE=JimUK,Nov 11 2009, 12:46 PM]I cant imagine for one second that Ferrari designers will have looked at the plastic interior of an S2000 and thought lets design the interior of the 458 like that! As for sound, I dont think the 458 will sound anything like a moddified S2000 in the flesh! Its a Ferrari, S2000 comparisons should be left where they belong, in people heads!!
