Now, I could have brought this up on any number of forums, but hey, you lucky Maserati fans, I thought I'd park it here!
Can anyone explain to me, in layman's terms, why V8 engines sound so different depending on the heritage? American muscle V8's have a sound of their own. Why did my GT sound so different (Better!) than my Ferrari 430 considering they had the same engine, albeit a different crank. Why does my 458 scream and my 289 mustang rumble? Ferrari flat plane, maserati Crossplane? What does this mean, and why does it make such a difference to the sound?
