ah interesting, i wonder about it too. i think i read somewhere that the time the beeping sound comes can be programmed. if so, maybe you can disable too. iirc, in sports mode when you hit redline, the screen sort of flicker in color a bit. that's good indication already

Let's put it this way, my 2004 Subaru STi got a programmable shift light in the gauge cluster that beep at any rpm that you programmed it to. Or you can disabled it all together. That was 2004, on a $33k car. This is 2011, on a $400k car that is fully computerized, everything is configurable and programmable. Yeah I bet you can disabled that beep.

cutaway pictures of the LFA exhaust
Yeah makes sense. If I actually had the money and the opportunity to buy a Ferrari, I probably wouldn't due to the reasons you stated above. I would only seriously consider buying a Ferrari if I had enough finances to support 3 or 4 exotics or supercars .
I think this should answer your question .
The third pipe as you can see is not directly connected to the two main exhaust pipes. The third pipe is connected to the multi-stage main muffler, and the third pipe is there mainly for acoustic reasons.
The third pipe might also be there for performance reasons, but that is just a guess.

So, to be honest, I will probably keep the beeps, even if they are able to be disabled. The engine revs so fast that you really do derive value from the audible cues.
