(does not reflect my opinion, just thought it looked funny)

Less hostile when in context.

    Cars are already subject to noise restrictions. So effectively loud cars are banned. There is just little enforcement for most of it.

            That may work to a point, people who get off on their noisy shits are more than willing to put in the work themselves.

                  Amen brother. If your engine doesn’t make every dog in the neighborhood bark can you even call yourself a man? I wanna make every glass of water on the block shake like that scene in Jurassic park.

                That’s not what homie is getting at.

                Irritatingly loud cars don’t come from the manufacturer like that. When you buy a car there’s no “annoyingly loud” option.

                People modify their cars. The objective is better performance, but the car will probably be louder.

                  In what world? Are you naive? AMG alone is thriving their business model on loud cars. There is luxury brands like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Königsegg which are loud by design. There is muscle cars from Ford, Corvette, Cadillac etc.etc. There is loud Audis, Porsche, BMWs, Mercedes. There es even a ridiculously loud Volkswagen Golf GTI or R.

                  Like what?!?!

                  Edit: they even having a sound check feature on their websites lmao (at least Mercedes)

                  Edit: for reference the Golf R has even a membrane build into to cockpit to amplify its sound to the passengers.

      I know what I’m saying is not objective data, but where I live I hear a ton of motorcycles that are tweaked to remove the silencers and noise protections
