Has a nice tone to it. Louder is not better. I have heard plenty or really loud cars that sound like sh*t = like 10 broken lawn mowers at full throttle. Exhaust note is like music. If there is a really sh*tty band that you hate, turning up the volume does not make then sound better.

Very true as well.

The V8 Vantage sounds awesome and is a beautiful car but has
poor speed : sound ratio

Not like fartcan Civic bad but it is disappointingly slow.

My thoughts exactly. That being said, I've heard some V8Vs accelerating away, and they are definitely plenty loud! Gorgeous sounding and looking cars, to be certain. Thanks for sharing!

Nothing really special but the sound of a AMV8 is always nice - even standard!
