400 hp 400 cubic inch american V8 with 4 barrel carb, headers and glass packs
WOT - when the Secondaries kick in, it is a very visceral sound
With header-ed exhaust - it is deafening. You can not have a conversation and you can hear it miles away. Kinda Nascar, kinda American Graffiti

That was my first car. You never forget your first
Just stay away from twisties

Think this is a better depiction of the LFA not the sound on the ring.

To me that video is worthless. I don't want to know what the engine sounds like sitting still and being revered up or running trough a tunnel. I want to know what it sounds like under load out in the open.

But from this video the car isn't throaty enough for me, to tin sounding to me. Difference in taste I guess. Although in the LaFerrari video I posted it did sound like a baby crying at one spot.
