Car No. 1 = Ferrari F-430 w/factory exhaust.
Car No. 2 = BMW 325i w/MagnaFlow Performance exhaust.
Car No. 3 = Maserati w/TubiStyle exhaust.
I will add that the F-430 was not pushed as hard as I pushed my car. It is my understanding that the F-430 has an exhaust system that when pushed hard air bypasses the mufflers and it is sent out through straight pipes giving it a louder sound.
The BMW is highly modified, it is my son's car and he has taken it to 380hp from the original 192hp. On the background of the exhaust you can hear the supercharger blow.
On my car all I've done is to change the factory exhaust for the TubiStyle and I absolutely love it... I don't think there is a nicer/richer sounding car than a Maserati with a Tubi.

Paco! I know that F430 sounds a helluva lot better than whats on the video.. I mean the Maser sounds awesome and all, but I dunno if you can put it up against the 430. We tried to record ours when it was here, and it overloaded all of the microphones we had.

The idea for this thread came after teasing Jorge, my 22 year-old son about the sound on his BMW. I do believe that most of the mods he has done are nice but I always tease him that it sounds as an old Toyota taxi cab with a rusted out muffler

Iwan's post saying "the M3 sounds like boys car do" really cracked me up... hahahaha... that is one of the lines I most often tell Jorge 
Mark, sure the F-430 sound a lot better than that... the car on the video was not pushed hard enough to make the sound come alive.
Ed, I've always wondered how it would sound with straight pipes... one of these days I might just give it a try... labor here is really cheap and I think I can get the straight pipes custom made and installed for less than $100.00, and would use the tips from the factory exhaust I have at home. Of course the pipes would not be SS but just for giving it a try...
Andrew, a F-430 with a Tubi should sound much better than the factory exhaust... but I don't know if it would give the same deep low frequency sound the Maserati gives.

Tubi is a must for the Maserati! After more than 80'000 miles with a Tubi, I can say this is the best bang for the buck mod' you can purchase for your car!

I do know and have said that your car sounds a lot better than that... you did not push it hard enough to make its sound come alive. This thread was mostly a way of teasing my son Jorge and maaaaan was he teased by itmaximus136 said:
