Loudness
I started my baby yesterday for the first time and the sound this thing makes is incredible. Videos dont do it justice.
I dont know the car yet but just basic cold start and tapping the throttle gently to 1200 rpm produced a very very VERY loud noise. Is this the “quiet” mode or somehow the car starts in the aggressive mode? i cant imagine this being the quiet mode!
Before you say anything, I do come from shelby gt350 with a ford performance full exhaust that is 115db and wont pass many race tracks so its not like I dont know what loud is but my gt350 is quiet when flaps are closed in normal mode.

I believe what you are experiencing is that when you first start a "cold" car I believe the cam timing is retarded and as the car warms (less than a minute) the cam advances and the exhaust note changes (gets quieter).

I will post a picture of my car next to my other car. Because even if I posted the picture of zr1, you guys would say its someone else’s car.
Listen, I usually have a very thick skin but these past few days have been very stressful and upsetting me so I have neither the patience nor energy to just play along with these comments. You dont have to believe I have a car. I have nothing the gain by convincing you and nothing to lose by not convincing you.
I m going to watch a movie and try to relax and not think about the car problems.
