alt Hacker NewsI say this with respect and part jokingly but this is basically just a "shakes fist at cloud". And I don't disagree with you! But if people use their signal and drive sane it's not much a problem for me. Very rarely do I see a modded car like this regardless of Make - and people make every Make/Model loud it's not just restricted to the aforementioned.
Your mileage may vary and that's all good

>shakes fist at cloud
the reason "shakes fist at cloud" is something to laugh at is because clouds aren't sentient. they aren't blocking out the sun to annoy you, they're just clouds. it's a natural phenomena, not something you can do anything about.
people who modify their cars to intentionally disturb the people around them are (theoretically) sentient. the guy in this article is not an uncontrollable natural phenomenon, he's just a guy who's chosen to make loud noises his hobby. shaking your fist at him is perfectly reasonable.
Hard disagree. You might be ok with loud engines splitting your eardrums and interrupting your sleep (or worse, your baby's sleep!), but society as a whole should not.
Live and let live is good and all, but GP said it was about "inflicting their taste on others," so I would read that comment to mean the inconsiderate things we should not let live. Loud pipes, unsafe driving, and loud subwoofers--I'll shake my fist at those clouds all day.
