Easy now, you don’t want to damage your hearing—or anyone else’s! But if you must have all that attention you crave, we have five of the loudest sports cars compiled right here. Start your engines and prepare to learn!
: The Carrera S has a staggering 443 horsepower—as well as a sports exhaust that can produce up to 94.2 decibels of sound.
Lexus LC 500: This car can produce up to 88 decibels, particularly when you throttle it. Repeated exposure to this decibel level can result in hearing damage.
Ferrari 458 Italia: This exotic sports coupe can put out 95 whole decibels of ear-shattering noise.
Sounds above 85 decibels are considered harmful to human hearing and can startle and frighten children, pets, and those with PTSD. Keep in mind that because of this and depending on where you drive, a cop that believes your exhaust is too loud is within the bounds of the law to pull you over and write you a civil citation.
