Well, what is it? Stock, modified, doesn't matter. If you can find a video of it, great! post it! My favorites include the Supercharged GM 3800 SII V6, the AMC 4.0L Inline 6, Subaru 2.5 Boxer 4, Chrysler 3.5L V6.

I like the distinctive sound a 90's something Honda starter makes...

I also like the sounds of the old GM V8's. Deep throaty big-boat groan... grin

Your going to think I'm nuts but I always liked the engine/exhaust note of the 90-91 vintage cavaliers equipped with the 2.8/3.1L engines.

Really? It bothers me for some reason...probably because I hear it outside my window every morning.

I like the sound of Ford modular V8s with headers and aftermarket mufflers. Any of the old school American pushrod V8s sound good too.

This clip makes me want to put a new cam in my truck...

Drag cars sound cool, and I get to hear them all the time. I'm five minutes (if that) from Lowe's Motor Speedway and the ZMax drag strip. I'm listening to the NHRA Carolinas Nationals as I type.

Automotive only?

Anything running over 6000 RPM. Ferrari V-12s especially but big American V-8s also sound really good going around a track.
This video turned up LOUD does it for me
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iItzJc-NHI4

Flat Track twins are awesome sounding also.

The video doesn't do justice to how loud and nasty these engines sound in person.
