How F1 cars are meant to sound, right? This was one of the most dominant cars to ever race in the series.

A great sound from a hugely successful F1 car, which took 16 wins and four world titles (two drivers’ championships, two constructors’) in 1989 and 1990.

I am a huge porsche fan, but if you are about to put a porsche on the “best sounding cars” list you should put the carrera gt instead of the 911 GT3 cup. I am also missing the LFA!

#4 Isn’t an M3 GTR, it’s a 320 STW. That video’s been doing the rounds for years. Somewhere along the line, someone edited out the beginning, where it actually says what the car is, and whos driving……..Rolf Van Os btw.

McLaren and Porsche are the only ones truly deserving here. High squealing cars don’t appeal to me. Where’s the Audi R8, Shelby GT350, 2016 Corvette, Viper ACR? I’d even throw in some Evo, Honda with TODA VTEC Killer cams, Subaru STI, 300ZX anti lag, and lets not forget the beautiful 2JZ sound!

The BRM Type 15 V16 has to be my favorite. Such an ungodly noise from two 750cc V8’s joined at the hip.
