I don't think the second album is ever as good at the debut one that put you on the map. That OG V8 is so distinct sounding you can even tell it in traffic without seeing it...I was standing about a block away and there was some guy crawling around in London traffic and sure enough when it emerged it was exactly what I thought it was😂

Those cold starts are heavenly! The old one definitely does it better though😆.

The sound is of course subjective, and I'm not going to argue which sounds best, but IMO the new car judged on its own sounds very good.

New one still sounds great and better than 99% of new cars. But the old one is just so damn epic the 2nd one sounds just “ok”

I wouldn’t swap my 2020 V8 GranCabrio for the new V6 regardless of price. Nothing beats the sound of the car with the top down - it’s not just that it’s a V8 it is the naturally aspirated nature of the engine that means you can hear the sound of the engine and intakes without being muffled by a turbo. I didn’t buy it to be a sports car, it isn’t as it’s far too heavy. I wanted a car that I could drive at semi legal speeds and still enjoy without any turbo lag and immediate throttle response. 😊

Great review, Ben. You covered things that we actual GranTurismo owners want to know.

It is worth noting that <br>the new version is based on the legendary "Giorgio" platform <br>used for the Alfa Romeo Giulia, Stelvio, and Quadrifoglio.

The old front is more agressive and nicer than the new version. Perhaps the back lamps seems aging, but the front is unbeatable! ❤
