Vandalising my car on my property is a really quick way to end up dead. Lol. If something that last less than 30 seconds upsets you at 6am you really need to re-evaluate your life.
If you're willing to murder someone over a vehicle, maybe you should re-evaluate yours. Just a thought.

What is "too" loud is different to everyone. If you think your exhaust isn't obnoxious, but your neighbors do, then I guess they are wrong. Now if I come to your window with my open header bike and I don't think it's obnoxious, but you do, then I guess your wrong.

See how that works? It's not an exaggeration, it's putting things in perspective. Your "mild" muffler delete could be as annoying to some people as an open header v-twin would be to you.

Do what you want. Fortunately I live in an area where people are respectful of those around us... one upside to gentrification I suppose.
Your comments are like a v-twin open header outside my window. Gentrification is something the rich do in poor neighborhoods, what does that have to do with anything. Do you live in a poor neighborhood being bought by the rich?

My 2 cents is, do whatever you want and report the results back.
So far no complaints. My next door neighbor asked me when I was going to put an exhaust on this car (had one on my 13) and he likes what I've done.

Had another stop me while I was entering the neighborhood and ask me to rev it. Gave me a thumbs up.

No complaints yet. Guess I live in a chill area though!

Of course. You live with reasonable neighbors. Other parts of the country are not so reasonable. In fact some areas people bitch at the smell of barbecue when you cook outdoors.

I had the GT500 mufflers on my 2014 and my neighbors didn't complain and they got louder as they burned in. I have lived in my house for 21 years and I plan on installing the Corsa Extreme on her soon. We have the Harley's with the open pipes and the bro-dozers spewing diesel smoke so i don't see why my neighbors would complain about the Corsa. I agree I would not want someone trashing my car but I have cameras, a 2 TB DVR and homeowners insurance should someone be an idiot and trash my car.

Just my 2 cents OP.

Yes! These people really exist. Like I said some people are unreasonable. No matter what you do to accommodate them they will continue to complain. The smoke police. Really? I bet they hate non stock exhaust systems. Like the Prius lady cursing and verbally attacking the man in the video for having a diesel pickup. Some people are bat shit crazy.

It's time for people to stop looking for reasons to be offended and feeling their rights have been violated. Be Americans and look for ways to be nice and ways to contribute to society. However, in a condo complex...I would try to compromise. Maybe a different axle back.

I was trying to make a point that your freedom only extends to you, not against others. For example, I have several dead trees in my yard...should I have the freedom to cut them down and left them fall into my neighbors' yards? You work the night shift and your neighbor has a Harley that he always warms up for ten minutes every early morning.
You raise five coon hounds in your back yard next to your neighbors' bedroom. They bark continuously every night. It's called being considerate of someone else!

If you're willing to murder someone over a vehicle, maybe you should re-evaluate yours. Just a thought.

If you're willing to risk yours by trespassing onto private property in a castle law state where it is allowed to protect yourself and belongings with force. Then try your hand at it. Or be a responsible adult and don't trespass and vandalise people's belongings.

Maybe I'm wrong but my father taught me if its not yours, don't touch it.

I agree with your father but as a society we're moving away from that thinking just look whom we have running for President...
