Howl or Thunder

After a few months of driving this car I love the sounds it makes.

I have two favourite noises, But I can't decide which I like the most:
The howl between 5500 and 6500 rpm when pulling hard, or the low guttural rumbling V8 thunder of putting the foot down in 3rd at 20mph and the crescendo that builds slowly.

Both seem to pull at the guts...guess I'll just have to keep doing them until I come up with a winner, and neighbours be damned...

They can bring out your inner childish car nut all right.

Like just popping to Sainsbury's early on Friday morning, finding the underground car park empty, leaving it in first and, window down, and just driving around and around for the sheer aural pleasure. I almost forgot why I was there.

....ahaaaaaaa...lol.....the thrill of driving through the series of 3/4 tunnels on the A55 in N Wales...is enough to almost justify the ferry price alone!!!!

Manchester airport tunnels; roof down, foot down, bleeding ears, big smile, drowning out the Ferrari alongside. Ah, the magic of Maserati!

Ah, the god of thunder himself! Easy to guess which noise you like best, sir! Would love to hear it one day, maybe we need a meet in the NW...
