Wow, that is amazing, thanks for posting the vid! Obviously not *quite* there, but amazingly close. If it had the big pops and *whphash* between gear shifts and deceleration, I'd be browsing the classifieds right now to find one of these cars.

Same here I literally went straight to Craigslist! IMO the sound would be more fitting in like an SL600 but imagine how surprised people will be when they see a big body s class fly by!

I believe it is the same Japanese company. It'll cost you about $10k though. And as of right now, no one knows if its legal in the US, although there are secondary cats in the exhaust so theres hope...

You can also get Ferrari Modena for $50K-60K and add exhaust from Challenge Stradale (fast forward to 1:14).
Make sure you watch nice bonus at 4:46 (tunnel run):

It sounds similar because it's the same engine, just detuned in the S8.
