[–] DogMuffins@discuss.tchncs.de -1 points 2 years ago (1 child) 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. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] OddFed@feddit.de 4 points 2 years ago* 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. permalink fedilink source parent
