I was watching Chris Harris latest video earlier with his Conti R, and it got me thinking of performance cars of the past with only one exhaust. I m not sure there are any new ones on the market these days, and even 20+ years ago it was a rare occurrence, although I do own one myself (968 ClubSport).

They really shouldn’t appeal considering the unsymmetrical look, but I’ve always been a fan for some reason

Anyway, here are some of my favourites, although there are probably quite a few others that I’ve missed:

Continental T:


E39 540i:


964 RS:


Esprit Turbo:


Sunny GTiR:

redcard It’s got two exhausts, the centre pipe isn’t an exhaust.

Only one pipe for some of the best noises any car ever made.

It's about proper design for the engine making power - never '.. how many tailpipes' you have!

I've a v8 with one, in fact last three - it works well, as designed

Vs: everytime I see, say, a Fiat 500 with /four/ - I giggle - /and/ they sound sh*T, like gargling into a metal dustbin...!
