Just curious as I plan to get an exhaust and wonder if that will attract attention to the type of people who assume I will want to race them or do a burn out at every stop light.

Yes, it will probably attract a little more attention. I just look at them and smile.

One rule of a loud exhuast is that you have to down shift every time you drive by a hybrid. Downshift twice if its a prius.

same here

Had a few revvers, but more often i seem to hear "light um up!"

it's what you do with those people that really matters. If you just smile and wave and take it easy, it'll show them what you want...

A car like this will draw attention no matter what. Of course the Honda Si's will always try to out run you. I keep the burnouts strictly at the track

The look of the car alone will bring challengers, mostly mustangs to be precise. Let'em pass.

I will be swapping exhausts soon but already adhere to this in my truck (Silverado with Magnaflow) and both bikes!

Even with a stock exhaust on the car, I regularly get goaded by some V-TEC badged, fart-can equipped piece of crap. I just laugh and ignore them...

Mostly Modded Diesel trucks and Mustangs.

I ask myself, Are they going to pay for my ticket ? Smile and drive off.

Who cares? Don't drive your car like a douche and ignore the idiots.

I always get harassed by ****** in BMWs. It's like they don't get they have no chance. Mine has NPP exhaust, so around town it's pretty quiet.

My buddy has a very loud exhaust, and he has every ******* on the road wanting to race him. SRT4s, Mustangs, BMWs, trucks, doesn't matter. They hear his cam and loud *** exhaust and try to get him to gun it. I half think they just want to hear it, but I dunno.

So yes, in addition to the normal attention, a louder exhaust will increase your attention levels. And it's important to rev at Priuses no matter what kind of exhaust you have.

If it is safe & worthy, I crush them! If I'm driving my Darth Vader Bad A$$ Black 87 V6 (9 second) Buick than the Vettes aways wait for me to slowly leave the light and then follow from a safe distance.

PS: The last thing I can remember crushing (bad) was a car show 383 cu.in. 68 cuda. I guess he thought Corvettes & their drivers are real candy a$$es. I think he may think twice next time. "AND" I like Mopars!! Had a 70 Hemi Cuda.

No. Maybe it's the C6's reputation, or maybe it's the sound of the dual mode exhaust, but it hasn't happened yet.

Sometimes I get ricers that try to egg me on when on the freeway but I ignore them. I also get Mustangs and BMWs that rev their engines by me on rare occasions. Most of the time I don't experience anyone trying to get me to race. Maybe a louder exhaust would cause more attention from these guys but I don't know since mine is stock.

TerryL

I heard a Mustang revving it up at a stoplight once and a 370Z kept up with me from a spirited but by no means serious green light launch. Other than that, no. I do light em up occasionally on an empty on ramp. It's really fun on cold tires on a cold morning with the traction control turned off. Stabbed it going around a corner once...that was interesting! Likes to change direction really fast, like the rear tires are on ice!

JimmyLee

No. Data indicates 50% of Corvette drivers are age 61 and over. Many kids don't want to race senior citizens. Not cool.
