Is driving around in the Ford Fiesta getting’ ya down? Want the rush of a driving a Porsche? Well, now you can…sort of. In.pro presents the Virtual Motor.

The plug-and-play accessory provides that sweet, foreign engine sound – without the price, without the reality. With a near impossible set-up and pointless end result, the Virtual Motor is, obviously, the best – or, worst – solution to the sports car blues. But, if you’d like to hear – not feel, or even have – the glorious sounds of an Italo V8, or a six-cylinder boxer, then the Virtual Motor is the right choice to replace your stereo.

(Check out the press release after the jump)

PRESS RELEASE:


V8 power from the radioin.pro. presents the Virtual-Motor
• Virtual engine sounds from the car hi-fi system
• Just plug it in
• Four possible types of sound: Italo V8, 6-cylinder-Boxer, Rallye, Monoposto

Be it a revved-up V8 Italian super sports car, or the distinctive six-cylinder sound of a boxer engine, the sound of the engine forms the character of a car and ideally makes your hairs stand on end just by starting the engine up. Thanks to the new Virtual-Motor from in.pro. every driver can now experience this indescribable feeling, without having to spend a fortune on a new sports car. Thankfully it is easy to attach and does not represent any problems that cannot be overcome by anybody. Simply remove the car radio from the slot, insert the sound module of the Virtual-Motor into the ISO plug and run the supplied cables to the engine compartment to pick up the rpm-signal. Done! It is not necessary to do much of a setup, all you need to do is set the individual idle speed. The further operation of the unit is controlled by the supplied mini remote control and the sound is emitted via the radio loud speakers.

With the press of a button you can choose from four different engines. In a split second the car can therefore acoustically have an Italian-V8, a 6-cylinder boxer, an engine of a rallye car or a formula car under the bonnet. Guarantees looks of amazement!

If anyone every actually put this in their vehicle, I would think they wasted some good money

This is sort of like putting playing cards in the spokes of your bike with a clothes pin. Makes noise, does NOTHING.

I saw electronic blow off valve noisemakers in a magazine once. That was pretty rice.
