You see?! Turbo engines don't have to sound bad!

That's the whole point though. It's never been about the top performance. It's about the drama, the theatre of the occasion. And, a V12 does sound better than any 10 or 8.

Yeah. That was sort of the point I was making. Different kind of car. Focused on luxury and sound. Kind of like Maserati to Ferrari. I'm just the performance type. ;-)

I concur almost... My V12 FF is incredible but my V10 Lambo with the Race Exhaust is equal to the task when it comes to exhaust symphony (R8 with my GMG Exhaust as well). I don't see any V8 sounding as good even if normally aspirated though.

My thoughts of course.

PS. After borrowing the V12 Vanquish I did not find the sound to be as good as my R8, Lambo, or FF. It did sound good but not as good as these cars. Of course sound is very subjective.

Only if it's the V12 in the LaFerrari. That sound is epic.

The Vanquish probably had stock exhaust. Not fair
