haha, atleast it doesn't sound like a CIVIC horn. I like to flash the high beams too as it seems to be bit more upscale haha...but one of my friends put in a AIR HORN from one of these aftermarket car radio places, not too bad. I had it on my integra back in the days, sounds like a 3d horn. shouldn't run you more than 30-40 bucks

I find more and more people seem to be totally clueless to the high beams.

Thank goodness that Japanese cars have been moving away from the traditional whimpy sounding Japanese horn--almost like the Road Runner (and I don't mean the Plymouth).

Even if it sounded weak, so what? Would you be embarassed and not love your IS as much because of it? Highly doubt it.
I honk my horn, on average, once a week. While I woudn't decline to buy the car because it had some weak Japanese-sounding horn, I certainly appreciate that it doesn't. If only it sounded more like a BMW horn--now THAT'S a horn.
