For guys who never got enough of a card and clothespin on their bicycle

Seriously? There's a market for this?

THOR ⚡️ electronic exhaust system

A new level of active exhaust system for internal combustion engines of electric vehicles and personal electric vehicles

Perhaps @AcuDefTechGuy needs one for his Lexus.

I want one for my Prius.

Could be a hoot, but think I'd go DIY before paying that much!

I didn't get that far but, it sounds like a whole lot more than I would want to pay.

The single speaker system listed at something like $1050.

I could think of much better things to spend that money on for my car.

Thanks for digging deeper. You are right, way over my pocketbook. Not even sure I have the room underneath and a place to mount.
I did listen to the Corvette sound that I liked. The Audi was terrible, like running on 3 cylinders.
And, just what I want to do is control from my smartphone while driving.

Yeah, that RS7 sounded like crap. The Audi R8 sounds much better.

Do we need to start a sub forum or should we just start with just a thread?

BTW, baseball cards were way better than regular playing cards, used by some amateurs. Just sayin'

I'm really showing my age.

Not a market for just this product, perhaps, but cars nowadays are getting very quiet in general and electric ones in particular.

I would not be surprised, at least in Europe, that some cars may be deemed too quiet and should emit some sound for safety of others.

That said, some drivers of cars and motorcycles like excessive noise on their vehicles and they can just go f*ck themselves.

@Trell
"excessive noise" down here where I live the are a few "Pro Rim and Left Shops" people are putting "Exhaust Tips" that make this "Excessive Noise" almost sounds like one of those Big Rig 18" Wheeler trucks when they Jake break. Well the Neighbors got tired of this guy in the neighborhood so they waited for him to go to sleep one night. A few of the Neighbors chipped in hired one of those repo guys.

There's a decent market for this. Sound-enhancing"?" aftermarket exhaust systems are fairly popular over on the Ford Raptor forums. Some people just can't get over the sound of a V6 in their trucks. For $1,200 though, I'd be better off just hiring Michael Winslow from the Police Academy movies to ride in my passenger seat and make engine noises.

I think I should expand on my post a little: There have been several times where I have nearly been run-over by electrical vehicles (cars, bicycles, etc) because they where too silent while I was running (without headphones, mind you) in assumed safe areas. Of course there is very fit cyclists that is, as usual, a menace, but now the unfit part of the population can achieve speeds that was unobtainable while being a complete asshole.

@Irvrobinson, lol
ADTG, just text me, said "My Lexus is 100% quiet."

No, I don't want one for my LX 570.

My middle name is "Thor", but I don't care much for Audio accessories.

What I care about includes reliability, safety, and utility.

Oh really? Then why do you covet one of these?

IMHO, there's only one thing sillier than buying a contraption like this, and that's wanting one so badly you're willing to put in the effort to make it yourself.

Well, umm, see, the MB G500 is very reliable, second only to the LX570.

But ----- that was just a phase I went through. In real life, my next vehicle will still be the LX570, not any Mercedes.
