    Most options here are from motorsports as they arent constricted to sound proofing their exhausts to stay within noise pollution levels. If any of these 5 options dont float your boat then choose other and name and, if possible, post a clip of the sound.

    What about the newer GTE ZR1 C6R Corvette they use for the ALMS? Sounds even better than the old GT1 C6.R.

    This may be controversial, but I find it a bit too coarse.
