Best demonstration of the contrast yet. 718 sounds hollow, and yes, hopped-up Bug-like.

Slide 11's video of the external exhaust sound is even more Bug-like. I wish I could remember what my 912 sounded like. When I did motor internals on it, a 4 pipe Abarth was installed. Certainly looked amazing at the very least.

To me it sounded better than the early 911s, which, as one publication, probably CD described the 911 sounding like "an enraged GM bus."
