I'm always amazed at how smooth the High RPM Hondas sound, I still prefer the Toyota, but that Integra's real nice too.
 
I've never liked the sound of 2 stroke engines. Then it occurred to me that I've only ever heard single cylinder 2 stroke engines. With twice the combustion events as an equivalent 4 stroke engine, it sounds essentially like it's running at twice the RPM it actually is. On a single cylinder, this makes it sound kinda...bad. So I thought, well let me see what a 2 stroke V8 sounds like. I was not disappointed.



Makes most of it's power under 5500rpm, yet it sounds like it's turning over 10,000. Awesome.

More 2 stroke goodness:

Possibly a repost, but it's amazing how such a small V-twin has some noticeable similarities to an "American V8", almost like a Mini NASCAR :drool:
