Best Sounding Car Clips of all Time

Alright guys so I am working on a huge project analyzing car audio. Engine, exhaust, induction (N/A and F/I) drive train, tires, aero... everything, and I need some good reference videos.

So, I wanna see your favorite car videos of all time (sound wise) in clips you can link to.

Can be any type of car, but there are a few things in particular I would like to see. Good examples of shift point sounds, drive line flex in street cars, good supercharger audio, ITB's, backfire/sputtering/hesitations or any kind of engine hick ups. Also good behind car shots, or any out of car (such as mounted to the door or roof) moving shots.



TIA for any help guys

***Update***

Looking for good supercharger reference!
Thanks

I'm going to class ina few, but I can recommend a few cars right off the bat for sound.

Ferrari 355, McLaren F1, TVR Sagaris, and Carerra GT. I'm sure you'll find vidoes on youtube immediately.

I prefer the sound of an 800hp Skyline at top speed. Mashing gears at redline with a dogbox seems like so much fun.

Everyone seems to informally agree that the best sounding engines are V-10's. Maybe vipers don't sound so hot, but Gallardo's and CGT's make up over 50% of all the videos I have gotten from various people so far.

Other front runners are the Zonda, F430, Skyline and Supra.

There is no better sounding engine combo ever.

11,000 rpm twin stage centrifugally supercharged F1 engine from early 50's...and it was 1500cc V16

Thank you! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!

what a great reference piece, other than a Veyron, I have never heard a V16 before. I love how every engine type sounds totally unique depending on cylinder count and layout. V10's howl, V8's rumble etc... V-16's sound like ripping metal, like a stroked out buzz saw on nitrous. Its a mellow but ferocious sound.

Awesome
