As a G35 owner I'm biased but I've had a sweet spot for the vq exhaust note long before I got the car.

Yuck. The Nissan sounds like a leaf blower. It's really unappealing, too high pitched, whinny. You need a V8. Personally I like the stereo stuccato sound of my 81 vette (with a healthy cam) with free flowing (no cats) dual exhaust going through a pair of flowmaster 40s. I've set off car alarms.

Although, I like the sound of V8 Mustangs as well. I've read something about the Ford engine firing order that gives it a healthy sound.

Gag. They sound like a souped up lawn mower. I like the throaty rumble of a big V-8 anyday. Don't give a rats ass if one of the rice burners will preform on a track or not, they still sound like crap to me.

I have a real sweet spot for Subarus like this:



But there are so many fantastic exhaust/engine notes I really can't pick a favorite.

A Ducati 1098r with the Termignoni set up is heavenly though:
