Look here...I have a race-built Mustang that is insanely loud and annoying.
But I built it when I was 21.
"Yeah man! Look at my cool loud car!"
Thats all well and good for a bit.
But in your late 30s? Its more like:
"Sorry! I know its a bit obnoxious and very loud but I can't do anything about it! Sorry!"
I s### you not, when my Mustang was my only set of wheels and I was working at Greyhound and coming home at 3-4 am? I turned it off at the main street and pushed it the rest of the way.
It is that loud.
I dont know, maybe some people don't, but I grew out of it after a bit.
I am talking...this thing sets off other people's car alarms on its way by at damned-near idle, its set off people's home alarms.
And I didnt set out to make it a very loud car. I didnt do anything on purpose. Its just a very powerful naturally aspirated engine and it is loud.
But I try and be as respectful as I can.
