Do you like it quiet?



Some members on any car forum would want some engine/exhaust sounds from their cars. There are millions of threads about intake and exhaust. Often you would read that (today's) cars are a bit too quiet now. Drivers felt distanced from their cars.



Just want to see what Lexus owners think? Isn't that one of the reasons why you got a Lexus? That it's quiet.

Quiet is very important to me in the Lexus lineup. The engine gets a little noisy when you put your foot into it but a cruising speeds it is a jewel.

I like quiet. I welded on an exhaust tip on mine and modified the airbox. So when i pin it you can hear some 'intake' but never growling or anything.



If i had an LS400, it'd have an exhaust cutout or straight pipes. It's a v8 - it should sound like one imo!
