@bluemoonshinya VERY right & proper! You should make all the MATRA clips your "Favorites"...on you Channel.

kind of sounds like a ferrari fxx in my opinion, fantastic sound!!!

[zuzulo56]

@wethepeople0001 I believe this clip (the bit where they show it being designed/built) explains that they purposefully strove to have it sound like a Ferrari. And, I choose to believe, Ferrari returned the compliment with the FXX...which, by-the-by, they wanted to badge as a "XXX", but the Italian gov. said "NO!" Something 'bout Cicciolina objecting.

[zuzulo56]

@wethepeople0001 OOPS!, I guess I, in fact, edited out the sentences explaining "the Ferrari connection." But it's there...& they DID copy the sound!

[wethepeople0001]

@zuzulo56 ahkay, thanks for sharing that, they did a good job with copying the sound :)

[glady91]

@wethepeople0001 there is a age difference between them, the matra was built before the fxx, so is correct to say that fxx sounds like matra. :))

[zuzulo56]

@glady91 Quite adroit! Your emoticon seems to indicate that you have 2 lower lips...do you? :-)

[wethepeople0001]

@glady91 okay sorry, my badd :):)

@wethepeople0001

No: this fabulous Matra engine as a incredible animal growl you never hear in a Ferrari (a bit more like a Lambo)...the Matra is another thing as a Ferrari , real special and comparable with nobody like a quadrirotor Mazda...

[zuzulo56]

@oiseautempete You do reside in France, may I assume? Do you know of any "MATRA V-12 ENGINE" clubs, or web sites?

[wethepeople0001]

@oiseautempete very well said :)
