what should i do, call the cop and get a report.
let it go and call there bluff.

I own my car for 4 1/2 years and have had headers on it for over 2 years now and never once i did something stupid or drive by's on my block.
Today i went to the store and came back parked in front of my house and a nasty lady in her 50's screams out im going to burn that car its not a motorcycle to be that loud. the only thing i do is cold start and that's everyday at 11:45am 7 days a week 365.

what you guys think insurance wont cover my mods if they up in flames.

Got to love NY

I am Jeff

Hagi...Make a report to the cops and park it in your garage. If you can't do that, point a camera at where you park it. Also, make sure you have full coverage with all your mods reported, if you want those covered.

I would look up any local noise ordinances that you may or may not be breaking.

Then I would look up local statutes on harassment/threats. I definitely would note the time and day that she yelled at you, for any future reference.

Ask her if she's ever burned down any motorcycles.

File a report for sure...never know what can happen. install dash cams if you can.
also, tell her your exhaust needs maintenance, and since you are struggling to make ends meet, cannot get it repaired. shed a tear or two while you are at it. jk

mthis

Some crazy S**t. I don't get how ppl have the nerve to act like that.
She could have asked me nicely if there was something I can do about noise coming from my car and I would of done something about it.

mthis

I don't want to meet her lol I walk away like I dint hear anything.

Have no time to complain I'm leaving for Vegas in a few hours.

natman316

burn down her house before you burn down her car!

wtf! crazy people lol

mthis

I parked it where 2 cameras are pointing at it.
Won't be around for couple days so wont know what happens.
This would of been nice if I had my DVR connected to the Internet

mthis

WBE55

Get a bunch of Local C63's with headers to do a drive my , LOL

propain

Tell the lady to STFU. She isnt going to do **** and if she does press charges.

Get a cheap motorcycle with a straight pipe. She'd burn that instead.

ddcha

Find a friend with a subaru STi with an aftermarket downpipe and exhaust. swap cars for a week. then she'll appreciate how quiet your car is.

Chancejat

people talk **** all the time and 9 times out of 10 they cant and dont back it up.....and with a 50 year old lady im guessing the odds are in your favor.

Guilty

Ask her if she needs a lighter.

m a x i m u s

+1.

but if you want to cover your bases and have a record of her threatening you, i'd contact the local PD.

CoolBDPhenom03

This. They're right, she probably won't do anything and is all talk, but I'd still be prudent and vigilant.

If it were me, I would've said what Natman wrote. "Burn down my car and I'll burn down your house."

USCGTO

If someone comes tells me that they are gonna burn down my **** (car- house-toy-bike-anything mine) they won't be opening their pie hole for anything else.

I don't think I can actually imagine someone actually going over saying that.

My neighbors have actually started smiling- given thumbs up - turned around and said hi - when they heard the AMG growl - and I am talking 45-35-25 mph downshifting from 3rd-2nd-1st..

CoolBDPhenom03

Seriously. My neighbors ALL love my car. The guy who just bought a Mustang GT 5.0, the guy who owns an S500 and 2 Range Rover Sports and a Ferrari 328, the guy who only owns a Vespa and Ducati, the couple who drives a Mini and a Cayman, the guy who drives the ZR-1, the guy who drives his company-branded VW Beetle, EVERYONE.

I proactively told the guy who owns a G37 that I always set off his alarm. All he said was "Huh, I didn't even know it had one." The months later he asks about my Ducati.

Seems to me that people who are annoyed enough to have a beef about it either have nothing else in their lives to enrich them so they have to find something to nag about, or are just habitual complainers.

Even Money

Yeah, you could go to the cops, then they start to investigate what's going on, see you have an illegally modified exhaust system that's causin' all this noise, then what?

CoolBDPhenom03

I thought about that, but I'm not familiar with the laws in NY about that sort of thing. OP, have you looked into it?

propain

Exactly. Don't waste their time, YOU will be the one who suffers instead of her.

I know insurance wont cover it but after you press criminal changes and she is convinced you can bring a civil suit against her and cover your costs plus a hell of a lot more.


Just tell her to do you the favor of burning your car and you will enjoy owning her house some day.

CoolBDPhenom03

See, that's waaaaay nicer than I would've been.

m0v30v3r

Just ignore her... Not worth it.

CoolBDPhenom03

Ignore it AFTER you get her on record. Then if ANYTHING happens to your car, related or not, you have her a$$.
