Default CTS-V Vs. Honda Civic

There's this goofy spanish guy at work.

This is my CTS-V Vs. his Civic.

He's had his alarm set super-sensitive, so it's always going off. I thought I'd be a dick and do this

He's had to push-start his car in the parking lot quite a few times LOL

If you walk by the thing and fart it goes off.


Just a bit of Friday night humor

That's awesome.

Random, semi-related story: after I installed my headers but before I connected them to the catback, I decided to turn on the car to double-check my gaskets before I went any further. It was 7 AM on a Sunday morning, and I had no idea how loud it would be. In the act of turning the key, I realized my mistake as the engine turned over and tried to kill the engine mid-start.

No luck. The engine came to life with a vaaa-ROOOOMMMM that set off 4-5 car alarms in a 30-40 foot radius. FML.

"I'm not revving, I'm trying to get up this incline" LOL

I haven't hit the parking garage yet, but my Miata used to set off most alarms on the way up

I'm pretty sure I set off a car alarm in the home depot parking lot today. I was stopping in to get a star washer for the ground fix.

Gotta love a V-8 in a parking garage. In my chevelle with a small block and 2 chamber flowmasters (exit out the back, no dumps) there wasn't much safe in the parking garage. At ide would get 2 or 3 to go off, rap the throttle a bit and five or six. Gotta love the look of the stuck up snobs in Scottsdale when the whole garage has alarms blaring.

A friend and I took his supercharged 02 Dakota R/T through a parking garage yesterday afternoon. We gave her just a lil bit of gas, and alarms started going off lol.

I get some sick pleasure by setting off alarms. The 1 I set off the most, is my brother's Firehawk. Lol

The thing that scared me was after the beer that I had, I went back to the parking garage and one of them was still going off and in my head I went "I hope someone didnt **** up my car for the rage that I just did"

damn u guys! all V-8's are against us! lol. i miss my V...VROOM!!

i have never had soo much security on a car like i do on this thing. i think the reason is cuz there so damn easy to steal. i wouldnt care where i went in my V cuz i knew it wouldnt get stolen. maybe hated on, but not stolen. owning an import sucks!

I used to park in a underground garage w ferraris and lambos and bentlys (NBA players).

For some time after buying my catback on my legacy I was driving around mote or less open downpipe. Anything more than a toe on the accelerator and all the alarms would go off if I was within 150ft of their cars.... Found it hilarious

Mine of course sets off car alarms everywhere espically with the LT's and cam...and even more so when the cutouts are open. I had a GMC HD 6 liter for a few years that only had two flowmaster 50 series with turn downs and it for mods and it would set everything off too.
