    Why does something being “stock” excuse it from nuisance laws? Fucking 8 billion lumen headlights, ridiculous exhausts, completely unnecessarily large vehicles, and blasting stereos are the bane of my commute and work day. And people have them for no other reason than because.

    And putting any sort of sound kit on an ev should be a crime. Fucking safety!? Really?

      If it’s stock, the blame should be on the manufacturer. Instead of punishing the consumer, where’s the recall?

      Agreed.

      I get the logic that it’s not the fault of the person who bought the car, but cars like that should not be legal to sell.

      I have adjustable exhaust vents. I set it to quiet start 20hrs out of the day. It will only turn on loudly between 1pm-5pm. Before and after are quiet starts. My neighbors appreciate it.

          The car naturally rumbles. I set it to quiet start for most the day because I’m not a fan of loud obnoxious exhausts. Which this is not. It’s able to take the four pipes in the back and turn it into 2 only. You can when tracking the car. Set it to fully open. But if you drive around town like that. You will get ticketed and the car unregistered if it gets hit for checks by the police. When you change the settings the car warns you that it’s track use only. Which only use it on.

          I don’t do burn outs because my tires are 400$ a pop. I ain’t rubbing any of that rubber off. And the car even has a burn out mode if I wanted to do it. Butttttttttt I don’t.

          I’m on my eBike most of the time anyways.

              My neighbors are all in love with my car. They are all muscle car people. You don’t even know what you’re talking about clown. Making assumptions makes you an ass. And I usually am not home at those hours. So me starting up does nothing to their peace. Go touch grass.

                Ok, if all your neighbors are also assholes I guess it’s fine, sorry. You’re all simply hurting others with your muscle cars. What a fun neighborhood that has to be! Do you also enjoy rolling coal? Only in the afternoons of course.

                  Also. We don’t do burn outs. We don’t damage the roads in our neighborhoods and we go to tracks for that stuff. You assumed so much. You just proved you are angry at an imagination you made up in your head. Pathetic. Get a grip.

                  Lololol. My neighbors are ex-NHRA racers, owners and mechanics. They have old F-1 Ford trucks or K-1’s. They have corvettes outside their homes and we all talk shop. You are just a shut in. That has clearly no life outside of the internet.

                    So your “cool racer car” friends don’t have laud cars? You’re the only one? I guess you’re the only cringe guy in the neighborhood than haha. Respect for your more considerate neighbors. You still sound like a dick.
