Some cars are just begging for an aftermarket exhaust. When the Ferrari 488 GTB first came out, many people speculated that the turbocharged 3.9-liter V8 could never sound as good as a naturally aspirated engine. And, for the most part, these doubters have been right. The 488 is not a particularly bad sounding car, but perhaps all it needed was the help of a louder, aftermarket exhaust. YouTube channel Gumbal has caught a glimpse of the first 488 with a Akrapovic exhaust.

We will let you be the final judge, but we don't think that the 488 sounds that great even with this new exhaust. In the video, a Ferrari 360 drives behind the 488, and we think that it sounds much better!

Just for reference, here is a video of a Ferrari 458 that is also equipped with an Akrapovic exhaust. Which do you think sounds better?
