I used to love the stock VQ sound...now they sound like goats with strep throat...
When the G35/FX/350Z etc all first debuted with the sound I really liked it for a stock car. It wasn't throaty or anything but it did make a sound whereas everyone else didn't make much of a sound stock. Driving the cars, you can hear it inside as well and it seemed fine. A lot of people hated how they sounded and I opposed them, I felt it sounded good.
Well years later and I have made a complete reversal in my opinion. They sound ridiculous. When I hear one driving by, I want to scream and wear ear muffs in summer. I grab ear plugs and close my eyes. Here are a few examples of what they sound like to me
- a llama giving birth to cow
- a horde of crickets jumping into a lagoon of beer
- a goat with strep throat with a foot caught in barbed wire
- it sounds like the Charlie Brown teacher "Whamp whamp whamp" who got kicked in the nuts/****
- a transformer older than Jetfire who got bombed by the Air Force screaming in agony
-______________________________ (Add your own here)
-like Darth Vader taking voice classes without the Mask
-like smeagol from "Lord of the Rings" farting
Look it doesn't sound good. It doesn't sound sexy. It doesn't sound masculine. It sounds annoying.
GB on earplugs?
G35s have become the new cheapo hood car in Atlanta so they are now all over the place making this sound.......sigh.....

Ok it is annpoying when some ricer is reving the VQ in their 350z.., It is not annoying when someone drives there VQ at full throttle passing on the highway, or better yet blasting through a tunnel. Anway is there a better sounding V6 engine? Maybe a Alfa's V6, or a well tuned VW VR6, but a well tuned VQ is right up there.
