Agree that this one sounds better than some of the previous vids. Like the one in the garage a while ago...

It has a kind of flat, hard, metallic sound at idle (not a warm, mellow and bassy sound). Perhaps designed to sound that way as it kind a sounds a bit more hardcore/race, like a F430 at idle (NO, it doesn't sound the same as a F430 )... F430 at idle doesn't really sound all that great, but once it gets moving...

Revving it, seems to create some rasp and mean sound
