I think it does make or break the car I think it's a monumental problem. If the viper actually sounded like a traditionally V10 you can't tell me that the car wouldn't sale more. Looks exotic, has performance, lacks exotic sound. The mystique and prestige of the Italian cars come from that F1 sound. Without it they would be just another car. Lexus LFA had a problem with the way it sounded and Lexus went to Yamaha for help and wow LFA sounds amazing. Mclaren changed the configuration of their exhaust and made it titanium. Which made a big difference with the 650s and the LT. sound is everything. I want to love the viper but exhaust note is very important to me.

Oh add Bugatti veyron to the list of disappointing sound.
