My Car is offensive... apparently
Featured on BIMMERPOST.com I was not speeding or doing anything unsafe. It was such a wierd reaction. Anyone else encounter anything like this?

And before you think I'm singling out BMWs, I own one and is well aware of how annoying can be to others, especially when living in houses that are in close proximity to each other. It doesn't matter which kind vehicle it is; a rambunctious noise from a douchy, inconsiderate driver doesn't discriminate. |

I've also gotten dirty looks when driving through my neighborhood in my GT4. Stock exhaust, but clearly louder than the average Camry. I also drive very slowly and carefully through our residential neighborhood and in town. This is in contrast to others in my neighborhood who routinely drive 60mph on our narrow streets to make their morning train to the city, or who blast around stopped school buses with their flashing stop signs deployed. So here I am, being very cautious and responsible, and I occasionally get looks because the car is a bit louder than expected. If anything, I'm safer by being louder. It's the Mario Andrettis in the dead-silent Teslas who are the real threat.

Just wait until the roads are filled with mostly electric cars. Think of the reactions you'll get then....

Should just go take the MPE in race mode and rev it outside her bedroom window. Miserable old bag

Sorry, I had to... Though I do hope, if the electric apocalypse comes, and I'm out of rebuild parts for all of the ICE cars I'd hoarded, that I can drum up an open-piped, NA Ferrari V8 at full tilt for my electric shitbox soundakator. Whether doing 0-60 in 1.2 seconds or cruising past the Poke Bowl, that F#cker is going to be sounding a WFO song at 9000 rpm |

Lots of old farts in my neighbourhood. I usually get the Wtf look and hand gesture when I am driving the slowest too, go figure. So now I give it a few revs and launch it away when that happens. That’ll teach em!
