Well I was going to order it but at a $24 shipping charge for a $39 item I think not. What a rip off.

That is freakin' hilarious. Wonder what it would sound like on a car with a CVT.

I also only found the V10 for sale, all the V8's were out of stock/backorder. I listened to a soundclip of the V10 and it didn't seem nearly as realistic as the V8 clip from youtube.
