BMW 2002 kinda wails. Sorta.

Edit: American car that wails…Acura.
Stick an after market turbo on it and it growls like all BMW cars should do. Even my Golf has a deep sound that comes from the exhaust when you accelerate. The only problem with my Golf is that it has been lying to me and my wife since we brought it. Gotta have some remedial work to sort it out next year which is a pain in the bum.
 
The Acura does wail but it also has a rumble too. Listen closely and you can sense both sounds going on. :)

Not long now chaps, my last car is nearly finished, Gotta go do some shopping as my better half is going away to see parents for the weekend and I have to fend for myself once again. Once I have done those things. I will stick some music on and tap away on the keyboard until the 9 tunes I have completed today are published. Ill be kind and put the wailer in the first few tunes published.
 
So you've got a diesel VW? I'm not positive but I don't think you have to take it in. My friend in his TDi Passat says he's not. But we don't have emissions testing in my city.
We got a letter from VW informing us that we have to have some engine work done as it does not meet the EU emissions regulations. It isn't an issue as they will cover all the costs but it is annoying that they actual MPG may differ to what was indicated when we brought the car.

Pick your corner entry line carefully as this car is not as agile as its production car brothers and sisters. What it lacks in cornering agility it more than makes up for in corner exit grip and acceleration levels. A great car and one that I wouldn't have thought was so fast around Midway.

A very fast and very enjoying Ford GT concept. Ford must have gone to the dark side when they made this car as it is a beast in disguise. It painted itself black to make it look as dangerous as it truly it. Enjoy. :)

Here is the screaming, fire breathing banshee that was mentioned earlier today. It will show you whose boss but it will also give you a lot of control through the corners too. Listen to the car screaming as you as you plough your way through whatever corner you happen to come across on your travels. This car is quite amazing and its looks do not prepare you for what you are about to experience.

A nicely balanced racing car with a fantastic British heritage. Eats up Silverstone circuit like a hot knife through butter and will put a smile on your face as you do so. Enjoy this amazing car.

It isn't the fastest 500PP SH tune I have in my garage but it is precise and easy to drive. Will be a good all rounder for seasonal races and career races when needed. :)

It's a Lexus Jim but not as we know it. This car isn't boring and it isn't used to drive middle aged men to business meetings in Tokyo or Seoul. It is designed to scare the kids, make grown ups drive recklessly and put your foot down at the earlier possible opportunity. This car may bite you from time to time but once you know how it likes to be driven, you can really push this thing. :)

Well, that was my days work. I hope that some of these tunes give you some fun and brighten up your days. I imagine that these tunes are going to be fairly cheap for you seen as you have half of these cars through PD gifts from the last 2 batches of seasonal events. I look forward to seeing what you think of them. Review away chaps and chapesses. :)
