Or just press the start button to activate ACC power and wait 15 seconds before starting.

You may also want to consider these.Thanks all, I'll try everything suggested (Clutch for a few seconds, ACC for a few, flooring it) and report back. If all else fails maybe the AWE Switchpath is an option.
I mean yeah it's funny and all but the tenant above my garage pays rent and it's a little unfair to tell him to just deal with it at 6 am. Maybe I can attach chains to my old Roombas and tow the car out each morning...
I'm really interested to hear how it works for you.Thanks all, I'll try everything suggested (Clutch for a few seconds, ACC for a few, flooring it) and report back. If all else fails maybe the AWE Switchpath is an option.

We have a walk in closet that is over our garage. My wife was getting dressed when I cold started mine and it scared the crap out of her. Lol.. So I can imagine if one is sleeping how that would be.Thanks all, I'll try everything suggested (Clutch for a few seconds, ACC for a few, flooring it) and report back.

This is the Correct answer, always worked for my 350.Or just press the start button to activate ACC power and wait 15 seconds before starting.
I left for work at 1:30 AM, had to do something.I kind of like my sound on startup. My neighbors have never said anything about it so I am not going to do anything about it.
donāt be surprised if none of the suggestions work, because none of them worked on mine.Thanks all, I'll try everything suggested (Clutch for a few seconds, ACC for a few, flooring it) and report back. If all else fails maybe the AWE Switchpath is an option.
Is this the R model only? My regular Gt350 absolutely closes the baffles upon depressing the clutch, and you can hear them cycle. I push it once, let the cycle, let out and depress again. MUCH quieter even on a multi-day cold start.You are going to get a lot of people chiming in to say: "Push in on the clutch and keep it held down until you hear the exhaust valves stop cycling."
But that will NOT stop the 1 to 2 seconds of initial "Blappity Blah".
So I will insert a host of smart ass suggestions which I'm sure that more will follow after this post.
1. Move.
2. Get hearing impaired tenants.
3. Put potatoes in the pipes.
4. Buy an EcoBoost.
5. Buy a Tesla.
6. Line the garage ceiling with anechoic chamber wall material.
7. Push the car out of the garage and down the street... now push start button.
8. #7 not viable? Buy used airport tug and buy really strong tow hook.
9. Leave for work later.
10. #9 not viable? Work from home.
11. #10 not viable? Change jobs.
12. Buy tenants a GT350..... they will fully understand and welcome being woke up to the Flat Plane symphony.

I was typing my post and no one had replied yet... Scott typed almost verbatim what I guessed would be said.
Well said Scott...!
My 8 YO son has only stood in the garage back behind the car twice waiting on me to pull out so he can get in. Now he bolts to the garage door first and stands outside for this exact reason. I laugh about it all the time.We have a walk in closet that is over our garage. My wife was getting dressed when I cold started mine and it scared the crap out of her. Lol.. So I can imagine if one is sleeping how that would be.
