Default Best sounding car?

Any opinions? After I saw a video of an F355 with a Tubi Style exhaust passing a Skyline GTR (Best Motoring), I decided that at some point in the future I will buy a used F355...it sounded exactly like an F1 car!

You can't hate the sound of an F50.

I saw a similar best motoring with a 355 on a high speed run... the exhaust resonated forever after it passed.......

There was a 355 at the track one day, and I kept hoping he would pass me (to hear the music of his car), but somehow we missed each other on 4 sessions!

Best sounding car I've heard (in person) was a Ferrari 355 Cabriolet. . .

Here's the story:

In San Francisco, while I was on riding on the outside of a Cable Car, I hear a DEEP roar!!! Some woman in a Corvette (Current Model) goes racing up the hill. . . Not that big of a deal, since we've all heard vettes at WOT. . .

Anyway, about 2 seconds later, I heard what seemed like an F-16!!! Scared me half to death!!! Some dude in a 355 was apparently racing (or trying to catch the woman in the vette). . .

To this day, the thought of that 355's screaming, high revving engine still give me the chills. . .

A friend of mine just bought a 1999 F1 360 Modena, I thought it was one of the most beautiful things that I have ever seen, then I heard it. It was absolutely amazing, the most beautiful sound that I've ever heard.
