Talking Make your car sound like any car you want

Instead of paying $500-$700 to improve the exhaust sound with an aftermarket Cat Back why not pay $200 and make your RX-8 sound like a 71 Hemi Cuda?? Think this can work on our cars?? Http://www.VroomBox.Com

It sounds like a decent idea, and I'd like to have a stronger sounding car, but I'll have to wait until someone can test this. Speakers under the car? How long is that going to last? If it really works, and can be made to last, I'll definitely jump on board. I have a very short attention span, and this would allow me to change the sound to my preference any time I choose.

sigh...

You know, they coulda put the technology to a better use...
If they can sync the sound output to the engine, they coulda made a much better sound adjuster (like Bose's audiopilot, which doesnt really work), increase the volume to match the engine, so you can have a constant audio output despite engine noise.

Or hook it up to those active silencers which produce inaudible white noise which effectively cancels outside noises to make the cockpit more silent...

Of all the applications they can think of.

THIS.

lol this is just funny as hell, while it is the epitome (note E not Y ike :D) of rice, i like it.

i want to buy a beat up 87' geo metro and slap this bad boy on there and go show up some really fixed up muscle cars at stoplights now :D they'll be shitting their pants once they hear my BOV and a roaring V8(or lack thereof)

I never managed to get rid of my K&N Typhoon Intake... so I already have all the contraptions necessary to make my car sound like something it will never be, thanks.
