R800NER Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 One listen is all you need The only better sound I have heard is an Aston V8 hehe, I can think of a few cars that sound nicer! However, all I care about is not sounding like a ricer. Would the Nismo be inappropriately loud? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And Chris, you really need to hear a Maser Gran Turismo - followed one the other day and its my new favourite sound. Far nicer than any Ferrari I've ever heard and in a different league to any 350Z.

Chris`I Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Sarnie: I've heard plenty of other cars, but I dont like the raspiness of the V10/12s in other super cars. Astons just sound gorgeous Massers not bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris`I Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Its too quiet on any car Far too quiet for me But at least you can have a conversation in the car.

Stew Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Still a truly beautiful car and one that hasn't aged much in my opinion. I'd have one. Just out of interest Dave, how much does it cost to keep on the road? You hear horror stories for prancing horses and just wondered how bad it actually is.
