I definately feel that's how people perceive it but not always the case. If I enjoy a loud exhaust then I'm going to install one and to hell with anyone who has a complaint. Now with that said, I'm not going to exit the sigh neighborhood at 7am on a Sunday at WOT but as far as the old lady on the highway giving me a dirty look, I could care less.

It's called being considerate. It's called being a human being. It's not just annoying, it can actually cause physical pain and ear damage. Don't try to deny it, either. We've all had that a-hole with loud exhaust next to us at a stoplight, just to hammer it on the green like he's at the drags. How would you like it if someone walked up and blew an airhorn in your ear?

Not trying to single you out personally...

Not saying it belongs on a daily driver or really anything more than occasion car but I think we as automotive enthusiasts can agree that there are few sounds more excellent than a car with the best suited exhaust.

Also, I don't recommend driving through the city or a crowded area, as i mentioned.

I apologize for quoting your post. As I said, I'm not trying to single you out, your post was just the most recent/relevant. This is just my opinion and I don't expect everyone to share it. Loud exhaust on a track car is cool, just not on a daily driver. I don't have many complaints about cars, either. 90% of the time, its a douchebag on a Harley or a large diesel pickup with nothing in the bed, spewing black soot.
