Sounds awesome outside. How loud is it inside when just cruising?

LMAO ... I don't even need to post anything here anymore as Skip has my back !!

Thanks Skip !

So after all the dust has settled, and almost everything is complete on the 360 as you can see from Skips videos I finally got some seat time in the car ... and the results are in ...

Here is what I wrote on Ferrari Chat

Morning all ... some updates !!
Finally have some seat time in the 360 ... I thought this car was going to be good but OMG this car is way beyond my expectations.
First off, some perspective ... Val the chief mechanic at PFAFF reserve (has worked on Ferrari's for almost 20 years) told me after he drove the car with all the modifications that the car was absolutely 'as good if not better' than a Challenge Stradale so already my expectations where high.

And then I drove it .... WOW
The sound, the shifting, the suspension, the incredibly improved throttle response (BIG thanks Trev !!) ... hands down the most fun, exhilarating, connected car I've personally ever driven, and I've driven some very serious cars. THIS is how a car should make you feel ... Just the right amount of power, beauty, handling, F1 sound, comfort and connection.

My intention was to build the the best gated 360 possible with the goal of creating the best driving experience one could possibly have, and as of right now anything I drive after this would be a disappointment

More updates, pics coming after the PFAFF Reserve open house /car show this weekend

Cheers
Steve

Trey, to answer your question even with the valves open (in videos) cruising on the highway with the windows open you can still have a conversation. With Valves closed its absolutely perfect, the sound is even more F1 and quieter with absolutely no drone ... have to admit we got REALLY lucky on how this all came together to produce one of if not the best sounding 360's around.

As my buddy said the other night ... "I dont care how much this exhaust cost it's worth EVERY penny"

Cheers
Steve

The driving video with your wife riding shotgun is glorious. So glad everything turned out well for you, Steve.
