Default Re: noice - and - the nav screenshot is priceless
In 1990 I had the fortune to drive a 1975 911 built with a 2.7 RSR engine from Germany. I drove it for about 3 months. The sound and the power delivery I've yet to experience in another car. I guess the hp/torque combined with the lightness of the car (not even an A/C in FL) was the right combination. Very viscious and unforgiving car. I don't recall the F40 hitting me as hard. Thanks for all the info.

You are correct. Those Micron carbon fiber high pipes I had mine sounding like a muscle car.
