Default Obnoxious Exhaust

It coughs like you've rid yourself of pneumonia all at once bringing everything up from your lungs in one giant lugie.

The farts are the satisfying kind done in a room with just men who won't care.

The worbles, all Jimi Hendrix with his wah-wah pedal and sterophonic phasing.

It solves paradoxes because if you drive this car in the woods and there is no one around, you still frickin hear it.

It's addictively American obnoxious, less John Wayne and more Lil Wayne. Something frivolous and useless I would expect from Dodge or Chevy, not Jaguar. It is not refined. It is New World crass and gauche and you Brits should be embarrassed for giving me another toy to pound my chest and think I'm cooler than everyone else.

I think I can even detect a little schoolgirl giggle in it but that's probably just the noises I make.

I think you may have not properly inhaled the tongue-in-cheek fumes inherent in the OP's post. It's really rather good. Perhaps bordering on poetic.

You forgot to conclude your post with Burma-Shave.

Not really sure what that means. And you really cut a hole in the hood of your car.

One has to wonder the extent to which the resale value may be impacted as a result of what appears to be a rather rushed partial wrapping of the hood and the overall weight reduction strategy that was employed here.

Uggh, next up the VAP Tune and crank pulley. Likely even more obnoxious noise coming up. What will my neighbors and coworkers think?

Awesome pick up. It is in fact A5 Wagyu from Japan just not from Kobe so can't be called Kobe beef. I usually get a 12-13 lb piece every year and serve it up 5 different ways. Will change pics in a week or so.
