    They all sound like crap when compared to the LFA.

    Which in turn sound like an electric golf cart compared to the THE BEAST Smiley

    Re: 488 GTB/GTS

    The difference, at least to me, is car exhaust sounds like Ferrari, my GT3 and your GT4 are manufactured by the type of exhaust installed. The LFA and CGT are a combination of exhaust and engine sounds providing an audio like no other.kiss

    I wish I would have bought a 360CS when they were like $150K. I honestly don't think they are worth anything what they are asking these days, but I do really like it. Red with Red/Black two-tone alcantara with a great exhaust would be perfect for me -- sounds great, looks great, and is slow :)

    .... yeh but then you would be running into people saying "hey man, you actually drive that thing? Don't you know its a collectible?"  Smiley

     

    I don't think anyone back then knew that it will end up being a collectible in just few years.

    Indeed - nothing  like a V12 from Italy as I keep on saying - watch out on the other Italian brand's board for later this week Smiley . I am hoping my TDF will be manufactured before the factory shut down this summer.

    Elegance vs. brutality.

    What that pic reminds me is that the double roll bar hump styling for cabrios is now overdone IMO.  All look somewhat heavy, block visibility, and likely add weight esp. through more complex roof retraction systems necessary.   To the point where Audi's R8 cabrio, which has a flat rear, is the only one that truly looks elegant.  (Old SLS cabrio too...)

    Very fast car. Looks like those cars are pretty even, though that 650S is a Spider.

    If they're not lying about its very low weight, the Ford should be faster than all of those.
