These are the only words the guy who sent in this video had for me: "Stereo. Volume. No iPhone."
He's right. Put on the best headphones you have if you happen to be at work or plug it into the best stereo you can find and just LISTEN to this Ferrari 599 GTO tear through a tunnel. Downshifts FTW.

At first I thought "Is this going to be all drone?" And then the ripping silk came on.
But what is that whip snapping noise during shifts?

@ed124c that whip sound is a throttle blip.

Sure sounds pretty good above 6000.
Sounds terrible below 6000.
How often will the driver be living at above 6000?

Beyond 8 cylinders it's so difficult to hear each individual one, so it sounds more like just sound peaking to me. My personal preference is for 6 cylinders, then V8s, then I3s, I4s, parallel twins and then The rest as a bunch together.
If you're spending north of $300,000 on a car then it'd better sounds damn good. I'll need to listen again with my stereo system, as I heard it on junk ultra-thin laptop speakers.

Maybe it's because I was listening on MacBook Pro speakers or the recording equipment wasn't great but I've heard a lot better. As billt9 said, quite garish in the low rev range. Sounds great here against the LF-A (which is still the one supercar I would have, everything considered). Highly stylized video but still enjoyable. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYTWt9C77WE
