I was gonna call it ricey, but I didn't want to insult ricers...

If you're gonna do it they make ones that mount under the hood and have their own speaker, you know, so you can still listen to the radio, and people outside your car can hear it...

I saw something simular to that on pimp my ride. They put something like that in a car but it made the sound outside it. And you could change it to make your car sound like almost any of the top performance cars with a push of a button.

It'd be more fun if it was just a man's voice saying, "Vroom. Vroom, vroom!"

I saw that gadget before and its $39.99 I think online only and the V8 sound better than the V10. Try this website http://www.latestbuy.com/sound-racer...ansmitter.html

Got mine yesterday,And although you do get the noise coming out of the speakers the novelty wears off in about 5 minutes,its also a bit finicky about matching actual revs and throttle position, and you have to reset it every time you unplug it..
$40? id wait till you see em at the flea market for $5
