Cool What is the best sounding exotic machine ever?

Simple question: When looking for a supercar for me there is three main questions to ask...How much is it, How does it perform/look and how does it sound.

I might be a freak but let me admit that sometimes I get really high and emotional when hearing some exhaust notes...so I'm asking this to the exhaust note aficionados like me what is the best exhaust note you've ever heard LIVE.???

I'll start...I've heard/seen lots of supercars but only the Gallardo SE/Spyder gets me wet all the time...

Muscle cars welcome too...(it's gotta be 69 Boss Mustang)

Here is some links to exhausts worth listening to:

Gallardo SE: http://youtube.com/watch?v=MRh-2lwmV8Q MY GOD!!!!

F430(modded): http://youtube.com/watch?v=8rR_YuQwFug

When It comes to supercar exhausts Ferrari is king in my book. So in this case I'll take that F430. Although that M6 sounds really interesting, kinda like a G35 x10

The Ferrari just sounds ridiculously amazing. Like something straight off the F1 circuit.

Carrera GT. Heard one in person and it was unbelievable. The gentleman who owned this also had a 360 Challenge Stradale, which he also started up. Although the Stradale (which I believe many say has the best exhaust note of any modern Ferrari alongside the 355) sounded great, the Carrera GT was just that much more unique, partly because of that F1 like howl that its shrieks.

F430 is the best sounding car I've ever heard in person. I heard it at WOT on the freeway about 2 years ago, and it still gives me the chills just thinking about it.

about NOTHING sounding like an F1 car.

Ya, I know they are all down around Yorkville etc, but I never seem to be around at the right time. Best I have seen are some 911's and whatever. I'll have to just stroll around down there one weekend at watch all the crazy cars.

Steve, weekends on Yorkville are sick. Go into Motorsports Collectibles and spend a few hours in there looking at all of Maury's stuff--incredible collection.

The guy who lives 2 houses down from me has 2 ferraris. a 360 convert and a 575m. I asked him for a ride one day and he shows up 5 min later at my house in the 360 with the top down, blue on tan leather... We went for a 10min drive and it was insane. He drove the car like a champ for an old man. He was downshifting like crazy as we came to stops and loved keeping the RPM 4k+ just cruising around. Great sound from the inside with the top down.
