Saw this on Jay Lenos Garage. Watch this video, this car sounds awesome. Especially when Jay lifts off the throttle....

the video says 7am. That loop he did is actually fairly "trafficless" at any given point aside from the section where he gets onto sunset, but that's mostly traffic lights holding everyone up. Mulholland Dr. is such an awsome road to fly around on....especially in that car!
