Quiet start? Not really…can it be changed?

Man, this thread really gets me.

I thought you guys in the US are used to this like Burgers with french fries.

I had concerns about my neighbors as well, but since I got only enthusiastic feedbacks about the car and its sound (even from Porsche and Mercedes employees ) and I think the others just keep their criticism by themselves, I just take it as it is.

This car has really something magic. Especially here it seems to be a synonym for the good old days.

I felt bad for my neighbors one summer. Two houses down a guy had a Harley and used to let it warm up for ten minutes each time he left and then rip it down the street

I had a loud mustang.

Guy across the street had a Honda motorcycle with aftermarket pipes.

also the neighbor who ran a leafblower for hours per day

You're right. Drive a late model German car here and people think you're an up yourself w.
But you don't seem to get that with US cars down here.
In the 50's US cars were aspirational. As in aspiring to be a farmer because they were the only ones who could buy them.

I tried quiet start for giggles today after reading this thread. It's not as quiet as I expected but is noticeably different than regular. I wouldn't have given it a second thought before this thread. I can't imagine any neighbors complaining over it.

I love the cold start. And I have a Borla S-type. I got used to it ..not loud . Just music

Some neighbours complain if your mouse farts.
