Lambo V10 v Ferrari V8

[Jonty355]

Whats your favourite noise? On a recent road trip through France we called at the old Reims-Guaux pit buildings for a few photos but couldn't help doing a few flybys!!!!

Mines the 355 with a Tubi exhaust, the Gallardo is standard but really loud!

The place itself is fantastic. Quicte spooky in a sense though, but if you're ever passing near Reims then its always worth a PH style pilgrimage!

I fear I've gone off the sound of flat-plane crank V8s, so the Lambo wins in the noise stakes on this occasion.

However, I'd still much rather have an F355 overall. Such a fantastic looking car

In this instance, the Ferrari sounds better, but in general I prefer V10s to V8s.

[Jonty355]

The Gallardo was an e-gear which on the down changes sounded brutal! Even I'm torn!!!

[Speed_Demon]

Can I have both?

[MJK 24]

I don't think you necessarily have to choose between them. They're both epic for different reasons. The Ferrari will sound great when being driven flat out to max revs through the gears. The Lamborghini will sound just as good from say 1,500rpm in 3rd at WOT all the way to max revs.

God that looks wonderful, I would love to be there at 2am in the eerie silence and wait on your mate doing a 100 mph flyby.

Each has their own merit, the F1 sound of the v10 for me but I wouldn't argue against the V8.

If its a high speed flyby you're after, here's what happened when we crossed into Germany on the Autobahn!

F1 sounding V10's like the Carrera GT, Lexus LFA and hell even half of that on the Volvo T5's are an amazing sound

Cannot stand the lazy V10 in the viper though, just too much of a lazy truck engine

For me, a screaming V8 is as good as it gets (After a VTEC coming on that is )

Before I watched the vid I thought I would say the Lamborghini but now I've watched it I can't separate them, awesome sounds I enjoyed that thanks.

[SturdyHSV]

Flat-plane V8s don't tickle me I'm afraid, I mean, it sounds great, but not my thing. In this instance V10 all the way. Otherwise, cross-plane V8 thanks

Reeeeeeeeeeeee, Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, yowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwmmmmmmmmmm.

[Jasandjules]

Quite happy with a nice TVR V8....

[BRMMA]

Both sound awesome, think the 355 with Capristo was best though. The Ferrari V8 in my Gransport sounds great as standard but listening to them makes me think I need to save up for some exhaust mods
