My suggestion....

Tomorrow morning, get up extra early and mow your lawn.

Then do some metal cutting in your garage, ensure it's alot of metal.

Spark up the chainsaw and get rid of that nasty tree you've been wanting to cut down for a while.

Have a jack hammer? You need some new drainage in your driveway, don't you? Punch away!

Then drive away for work, he probably won't be as pissed off at your car as he is your existance.



85 db's is not loud enough to warrant a complaint. When the cop hears your car once it's warmed up, he'll laugh at the idea and tell you to have a nice day at work

Just my .02

Im not discouraged to drive the car less b/c of him. The only time he complains is just in the morning but as you can see from the vid what does he have to complain about? Hes also got the tree buffer zone and hes inside his house, The most I get it up to is 2,000 RPM's when I leave b/c it is early in the morning and there are other houses around to but despite that hes the only one who has ever said anything. Hes jsut going off the basis that the car was to loud last year which it was so he thinks its the same this year and its not. Like I said Im not worried about the cops as far as the actual DB level of the car its just that If I get pulled over for it they will check the registration and inspection both of which are past due , Damn car has been in the shop so much this summer and Ive been driving it so little that I kept putting it off and now its at the point where it will be put away for the winter in Oct. I should get it done anyway but it wont pass inspection b/c of the rear tires and Ive been putting all my extra money into getting the parts together and put on and now to get it tuned. Maybe it will pass w/ the MT DR's.

I really think you should heat those tires up before you leave the neighborhood...wouldn't want to drive around on cold tires, right?

i say get the registration and inspection cleared up, and then call his ass on it.
tell him to call the cops, and that you'll wait for them.
most of the time if you call their bluffs, they will just stfu and back down.

i went through the whole spectrum of BS noise complaints not only with the stang but with just random noise when i was living in an apartment complex.
i knew my stang was loud and just about everybody just let me be, and i did the same. i would tolerate other people, like if i had to work the whole weekend and next door had friends over making noise till 1 or 2 i didn't call the cops or even knock on the door to complain. I just dealt with it. just like when i was still driving the stang daily and in the winter i would have to leave at like 4:30 or 5 and that pig would be so loud in the morning, but no one complained. until this one snotty ****** moved in, let just say, she tried to make it hard for me and my family. but ending up with no power on nights it would rain or snow. and her locks would be glued shut when she went food shopping, it suxs when you carry bags of food up 3 storys to not be able to open you door.

sometimes you have to become a bigger ******* then them, and it will put them in their place. it's always worked for me. it's starting again in the townhouse complex i live in now everyone who lived there before i moved in 2 half years ago never had a problem with me and vise versa. a new couple moved in when the summer time started. and right off the bat i could see they had a problem with me and my wife. it starts off with the dirty looks and then the complaints start coming in. the onsite manager i could see started to get worry, like he thought i was becoming a problem. and by the fourth complaint he realized they are the problem. the manager will come to you if a complaint is made and ask your side of the story, he's very fair. if your not home then he slips a note under you door to talk to him about the issues. if you don't he thens leave messages on you answering machine. well on the fourth complaint he left a note, multiple messages and when he saw me i could tell he was a little pissed. but what he didn't know was i just got back form the airport and was a way for 2 weeks on vacation when the dips ****s made the complaint. so these nimb rods made a false complaint while no was home. lol i even gave him a copy of my ticket stub so he could file it with the ciomplaint the was made 3 days after i left . lol now he realizes why the first three complaints i would tell him i have no idea what your talking about, he thought i was been a dick about it. but they were all made up. time to start collecting on payback.


btw i just notice i hijacked your thread. sorry man.

i know the feeling, my neighbors hate when I leave for work. The 07 has mac axleback and off road xpipe which makes my 95 sound so quiet inside and it has flowmaster catback and off road hpipe. For several months I was leaving a 4:30-5 every morning, and now i leave at 6. My neighbor will complain to a friend of mine but won't say a word or look over while both of us are outside. I try and keep the car as quiet as possible in the morning though and not rev it at all. so it'snot like i want to make alot of noise but it just happens...and if he wants to buy me a catted xpipes i'd be happy to install it

Just drive the car the way you want. If you have to warm it up then dont worry that it is waking him up. Period. ENJOY your car. I did not realize you are in an apartment complex. If he wants it quiet, he will have to move. At least you make an effort.

When I lived in an apartment, there was some jerk that would back up to my window at like 12am and sit there with his g-friend and every 30 seconds hit the gas in his loud pos and wake me up as I was starting to fall asleep. That's not you.

Later in the season we had 100+ cars a night during the week... some have loud music on... I am lucky my neighbors were cool with it...
