Right? Even this TT V6 sounds retardedly good.

Make my Z sound like garbage, but so does the GTR.

Since when does the GTR sound good? Stock all you hear is induction noise. It sounds like the world's fastest Dyson.

DE, take the ISF now so he's forced to buy the Maserati. That way you get to drive it, but you don't have to maintain it. JD Power initial quality be damned, I'll bet it doesn't hold up for ****. A new entry level model from the Italians? What could possibly go wrong?

No- more than likely it was cleared in Japan and made in the US:
