Highlight text below this line to read after you've done the test, listen to each clip carefully!:

I got all of the F1 cars right, but totally failed in the supercar department, I suck at differentiating between those. Thought the Veyron was the Aston, the Ferrari was the Lambo. Got 4 out of 8.

I'm positive you guys can do better than me, although I am proud I got the F1 cars right on my first try, the tough one's identifying between the V12 and V10 for most people.
 
6/8, I mixed the Lamborghini with the Aston Martin, I think I'm not going to get over it quickly
 
4/8, I had no idea for the roadcars and the 7th clip wouldn't play.

By which I mean all the F1 sounds I got correct.
 
V6 and V10 was easy. I messed up the V8 and V12 some how?

I also confused the Aston Martin with the Lamborghini. I blame GT5/GT6 for this :lol:

Why do they show and audio sample an Enzo but show a picture of a LaFerrari?
 
6/8

Got everything but the Aston and the Lamborghini. I guess because I was looking at a picture of a Gallardo, I was expecting to hear a V10 but I heard a V12 instead, which threw me off. I too question why there is the sound of the Enzo, but there is a picture of the LaFerrari for it.

For abit, I was unsure whether I got the Williams and Ferrari F1 cars right but turns out I was spot on.
 
6/8. Mixed up the Lambo and the Veyron. I'm surprised that I could differentiate the F1 cars ^^
 
8/8- Was tricky to spot the Lambo V12 at first. It was quite easy to establish the different tones from the sounds.
 
8/8 - The F1 cars were easy enough and the Veyron was just muffled noise with turbos whirring.

Came so close to mixing up the Aston and Lambo though. Again, expected the Gallardo V10 and got a Lambo V12 instead. While the Enzo has a far more distinct V12 note.

I did mix them up and then switched them after getting it wrong. Original score for me was 6/8, I was listening for a V10 and then realized that I probably should give up cause it isn't there and they're all v12s between Aston, Ferrari, and Lamborghini
 
4/8 :lol:

Got the V10 Williams and the V12 Ferrari the wrong way around - I was swayed by how loud the downshifts were, I recall the V10 Williams sound pretty violent, and assumed the V12 would be smoother.
Also, got the Lambo and the Enzo the wrong way around... but wasn't sure if Lambo V10 or V12?
 
I got all 8 right on my first go. Had to do things in a 'process of elimination' style to identify which sound belonged to the Lambo, though.
