it would be amusing but if expensive probably not worth it. I have always wanted my car to make the Jetsons car sound. But even that would get annoying

Of the three, I think the jet is the best (least bad?). Couldn't be expensive though, and it would need to be easy to turn on/off...

I think these are cool and have heard them used on electric motorcycles.

If it is under $200 and easy to install, sign me up. I think this would be a cool novelty to show the "haters" out there that don't view these MME's as Mustangs.

Just one more thing to annoy them IMO as I beat them off the line so to speak. ?

Needs to be able to plug into a laptop (USB port, or pop out an SD card) so you can change the sounds to whatever you want.

Perhaps ten: Just put ten files on the SD car 0.wav through 9.wav or something. Then it could be selectable.

Here ya go $20, just add an amp:

Borla has a product coming out, which has been posted before - https://borla.com/products/active-performance-sound-for-electric-vehicles

This will be the most sophisticated solution out there, tied to the car's systems exactly. It won't be cheap.

It was supposed to release in the Fall. I contacted Borla in mid-March and they said "within 2 to 3 weeks". It's now 6 weeks later...

Price will "be similar to one of our Cat-Back exhaust systems". FYI, those cost like $1,200 and up...

I am one that would like sound, and sound choices, WHEN I want to, like last week pulling into the EV event. I would never pay $1,200 for it though. Last week I put a bluetooth speaker in the frunk, and had a few noises to play, and forgot.

It has to be tied to the throttle, otherwise it's simply a speaker system and I can do that myself.

Which means ODBII cable to sync the vroom of choice. Or intercept the stock noise maker.

They make me smile.

More sound options, definite on the on/off and volume control and keep the price low and I’m interested.

As others said the Borla at $1200 is absurd.
