I was afraid I might have to point this out to a savy individual. Well, I'm at my military "A" school and I don't have a lot to do most of the time so I just watch youtube videos of potential cars I'd like to buy with the noted $25k from the previous post you qouted from. I watch the movies, hear the beep, and I really don't think it's necessary. My personal preference, I'd rather not hear a beep when I redline. Thanks for the free bump though haha.
If you haven't driven the '8, you might want to try before deciding whether to get rid of it or not. I find that the beep is necessary for helping me keep the engine off of the rev limiter at times when it would be an amazingly bad idea to try to keep track of the tachometer.

There has got to be a way to either replace the oscillator or add a relay or something to get the beep back to the nice loud "Dude, I think someone's honking at you" "No, that's just my redline buzzer" sound that my 84 Rx7 has!
Someone tell me they've been behind the console and figured this out!
I took my 8 for a test drive and didn't hear the beep. I was listening for it, expecting it, hoping to hear it.. Nothing. Or at least quiet enough that I didn't hear it over the -relatively low- music, which I had on low volume so I could talk to my passenger about the car as we were test driving.
