In Germany, the volume is measured in a certain range idle,3500-4000rpm. If the dB value is correct, you get a TÜV. Above 4500rpm, open valves are allowed. The strange thing is that the more horsepower your car has, the louder it can be. The best sound is Novitec Aventador SVJ. This exhaust is made in hell to kill your neighbors.

P.S novictec no way germany over 140db with open valves aventador

I know the LRR guys. Their shop use to be near me in Raleigh. Great people!

Yeah, Glenn Long and the crew at LLR were the best as far as I'm concerned. Mazda moved the MX5 cup car production to a company in Florida around 2018/19 (not certain why). Unfortunately, faced with a personal tragedy, Glenn closed the doors on LRR in 2019. From what I can tell he's back in motorsports with Ford Performance. The way he treated everyone I can only wish him well.

I might buy this one in the future , a second hand Mc laren 720S.
They go for nice prices these days because the 750S is out

I went to buy a Mc 570 in 2017. They had 3 all in the shop for various issues. Left and ordered my R8+. One of my neighbors has a couple of Mc's and absolutely loves them but, they do spend a lot of time at the shop. I think our old Esprit Turbo was more reliable (way less tech to deal with).

Beautiful cars with superb performance. Resale values drop significantly around here.

Yes, I know he had some tough personal issues to deal with. I love watching Tom whenever he's behind the wheel. I still have the fire suppression system I bought from Glenn a very long time ago... it probably needs to be recharged.

Tom is an exceptional driver. He was up for a Mazda factory ride in ALMS when it was still called ALMS. Do you know what he is driving now?

I loved the Lotus Europa, the Mini Countryman, and the Aston DB9 the most (although the Triumph GT6 was my first car and had many young man adventures, it was a nightmare).
I disliked the Mustang and the Merkur.
The gray-market 928S was very cool at the time.
And the DB9 will still be in my garage when I die.
