Cheating a little, as A) may or may not be a supercar (although I'd say it is) and B) it's what an old friend has just bought. An AMG GTC. He came over last night, and I took this photo at the pub down the road from me. Went out in it for a 10 minute hoon, and bloody hell, it was savage! Made all the more scary that the roads were wet, and he was pressing on. Oh, and WHAT a noise 
There is not a single element of that, inside, outside or under the bonmet that I find even slightly attractive.Doofus said:
And sounds like a three-year-old doing fart noises with his armpit.
Behave. Have you heard one up close? They arrived at the pub just before me, other friend had said we're coming over in his new car, and I said 'don't tell me, let it be a surprise' We pulled up and I said 'very nice!!', he said 'start it up and give it some revs' chucking me the keys. I did, and most the men in the pub were outside within 10 seconds wanting a listen. It sounds incredible. Edited by Fermit and Sexy Sarah on Wednesday 21st August 21:36

Yes I have. I don't like any of AMGs current engines range as they all sound really childish. The fact that a load of blokes in a pub like it and I fon't doesn't mean I'm misbehaving.See also Jaguar F-type.

We currently have a 5.0 V8 XK on the drive and it makes me chuckle every time it gets fired up (especially at 6am when someone is going out to work in it) and my dad recently got given a V6 F Type for the day because he was thinking about changing it.See also Jaguar F-type.
The difference in sound in terms of volume was embarrasing to be honest. The XK sounds powerful and reserved but menacing and the F Type is like a yappy dog. it was a nice sound for all of about 10 seconds then it got tiresome, couldn't imagine it on a long drive, much as I love the car, the XK is better.
