I need something fun, and this could be it.

FIL is out of country ATM, and we've got his Accord (won't be driving it, just looking after it, having dropped him off in the big smoke in it).

His vehicular experiences will be the Chunnel train, first ever plane ride (737 to Singapore, and 747 to Europe).

I had quite a buzz playing flappy paddle hill climbs on the way back up the hill, so was thinking that when he gets back, he'd be best Chauffeured home in his Accord, me driving flappy paddle, and this...
 
Glad the FIL is on a 747 and not on an A-380 driven by those crazy Air France pilots (who apparently learned to taxi jumbo jets by driving Citroens in Paris...)
 
That is hilarious!! I'd rather have a Monaro VXR thought!!

Pick him up in your car, then give him his, with that device hidden.

I love it. Want one for my wife's Aerostar. With it's puny 3.0 and revving out to 5700 rpm either the V8 or V12 would sound great! If it were $20-25 I would order one this instant, but $50 is a bit steep.
 
Got the V-12.

Works great in my Nissan (diesel ???), not so in the Honda, or Subaru Forester.
 
Call me weird but I heard a Saab 9000 turbo yesterday and the guy must have been on the boost when he got off the throttle because I heard the BOV.

Now that's a sweet sound to me. I've always liked the underdog. In my 30 years of driving, I've only owned one V8. Every other car has been a 4 or a 6, including my SVT Contour which had a custom turbo setup.

A well sorted turbo car is a fun ride. Fun for the ears and the seat of the pants experience. So one of these with the turbo sounds would be great.
