The high pitch sounds nice but the rest sounds like something gargling

You will never get an rx8 to sound like a maserati.They have high revving v8 engines"maserati is owned by ferrari"I would say my r3 sounds like a high revving inline six.Not exactly but to me that is the closest piston engine comparison.

Use Azn Dragon power and swap in the Ferrari sourced V8 by hand. Don't use any tools, just your fingers to tighten bolts.

With the right exhaust setup our cars already have a very exotic car note.

Yeah man take your 8 through a tunnel and stomp on it sometime, and listen, I mean really listen to the exhaust note - it's a beautiful sound in its own right

First your car needs to LOOK like a Maserati. Then and ONLY then can you ever sound like a maserati

In my opinion... and I know I will not have a lot of followers... but cars were made by the manufacter the way they are for a reason. Aftermarket exhausts, while adding volume and changing sound, pretty much NEVER sound as good. I've had people ask if I added an exhaust to my 8. It's stock, it has a destinct sound...the rotary. Personally I think it sounds tight.

But the 8 is very loud as it is (you know if you've ever taken a road trip in it and your ears hurt by the end) so adding an exhaust is impractical.

What is also funny is many people must disagree because there are aftermarket exhaust (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&client=safari&rls=en&ei=2fB9S8_uOYG8lAfC4LzXDQ&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&ved=0CAUQBSgA&q=Maserati+Quattroporte+aftermarket+Exhaust&spell=1) for this Maserati.
