Default Music to my ears...
Every now and then I like to shut off the stereo and just listen to my car as I cruise. My '96 Formula may be a little older, but she still purrs nicely.

Does anyone else here do that?

I don't even turn the radio on anymore. I'd rather listen to the true duals

What's best is when some punk cruises up in his tricked out civic and revs his engine, then you rev yours. The look on their face is priceless.

I find myself with the windows down more often since the LM went in.

Tunnels and under bridges are also fun places to rev it up.

Parking garages are good times. I like to see how many car alarms I can set off while fishing for an open spot.

T-Tops out, windows down in parking deck with overhead lighting, it is like launching out of a space ship!

I used to do that at the place I worked. When I'd start my car to leave, I'd set off two or three car alarms. What's awesome is setting one off that's three or four cars away
