Finest 4 pot sound?tigran

Come on post up some (preferably) retro 4 pot soundtracks. I want to hear some DCOE's, raspy exhausts and damnit some high pitched screams! I'll start off with this as possibly the best 4-pot sound I have heard, not retro I'm afraid but then I'm no saint. I can't quite put my finger on whether it's whiny and annoying or simply the shizz. I'm leaning towards the latter. Cliketh

If the weather was warmer, I'd drag the VFR out tomorrow afternoon. The greatest ever 4-pot sound.

Top grammar tips! Bought = purchased. Brought = relocated Lose = misplace/opposite of win. Loose = your mum

It's in the ear of the beholder..
Finest 4 pot sound to me always has to be the utterly distince rattle of an aircooled dub. Makes your head turn in this era of blandobox cars..
On a personal note, the relentless rattle of my VW 1.6 diesel means that I'm on holiday and is music to my ears..
BMW M3 for pure aural satisfaction.
