This is one reason why we choose to build these amazing cars and not buy...
Fifth Gear - Lamborghini Aventador LP700-4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l_2ChndXmQA#)
"We build to suit ourselves...." Even though I doubt we make it over 200 in ours ;)!

Ah, but USMC, we can and do dream, don't we??? I caught Top Gear a while back and it seems that every time they get to drive a Lamborghini, they start talking like a baby at over 200 mph. Da, da, da, da, goo, goo, goo, rump, rump, rump, WOW!!! I could just crap. ;-)

Not being able to replicate that engine is the one big downside to our builds. If you've ever had the privilege of standing next to or behind one at start-up your know exactly what I'm talking about. The Lamborghini V12's always start up with a really high rev and then settle back down. The sound is a combination of a shrill and a howl and it goes right through you and tickles your spinal cord. Below is one of my favorite videos on YouTube and it actually comes close to capturing the sound of a Lamborghini V12 in race configuration (turn those speakers up!).

Easy Fix. Attach a 12 position switch to your throttle cable. Each position corresponds to a prerecorded Lamborghini exhaust note which is wired to your audio amp. You accelerate and you get a higher pitch howl with appropriate volume. Works for me. ;D

I would be happy just to have the sound that my bike has
unfortunately that engine would give low hp :(
I don't know if anyone would buy the audio thing. Is it possible that the guy in the video could be using this method? (even though it's a real lambo) See what I mean.

My old turbo Busa sounded like that 8).... Just didn't rev up as fast

Don't laugh Jim, there is actually a company selling a device you plug into your lighter that mointors the revs and plays an engine sound through your car stereo. BMW just released an option on some of their cars that basically does this same thing. I'll just stick with the sound of my 3800SC thru a set of headers and performance mufflers which most people won't know the difference anyhow. ;D

Tiff from Fifth Gear never liked anything Lamborghini. The Top Gear guys love it.
Here is one clip from Top Gear;
