That's what I thought when I first saw it. The front is Viper-like but the rear looks too flat.

Found it!

I love the sound of C63 AMGs normally but that sounds horrible. :/
Absolutely agree.

Sounds like it is shouting out of control...like it is suffering on a psychiatric ward.

Horrible sound
Each to their own smile

Can anyone tell me what the car is in front, he can't beat it smile
Looks like a Corvette
Viper, non?

The comments mention a SRM V8 from Swiss Racing but that's the one behind, which has a different rear end. I'm none the wiser.

EDIT - Well done that man smile

Kate Upton on the phone saying "I'm coming over right now and I'm not wearing anything"

Althought a Ford Flathead with open pipes sounds pretty darned good as well.

It's downright...vulgar. "HEY, LOOK AT ME, I'M LOUD..."

The sound of inserting the key into the barrel, turning it two clicks to hear the faint whirring of the ancilliries and then pressing the starter button to hear the thunderous sound of a Ferrari F40 waking up from its slumber and bellowing into life.

Sadly I have never done this, I have sat in the passengers seat and watched someone do it though and it is rather special.

Good call. Although my brother's 4.3 Griffith sounds better, probably the nicest sounding car I've ever heard. My Dad had a V8 County Land Rover with a straight through exhaust and that sounded quite special. Guess we like V8s in my family!

Lots of links above, and I have internet slower than dial up, so don't know if this car has been posted.

Used to catch a flight to Germany regularly from Heathrow which was always about 3 behind Concorde on the runway.
Awsome sound.

I'm biased towards TVR's

Hmm..I can see how it may appeal to anybody aged 14 . It sounds ridiculous and seems to be driven by somebody who has a mental age of 14 - or perhaps less.
