Seems there is no end to senseless questions or polls. I've used my horn once or twice just to see what it sounds like. It's ok, and what I would expect from a horn. I'm certainly not going to change it.

I dont care for the horn, as its used for warnings. I use it mainly to tell friends to get out of the house, so i can drive their *** around

Um...it sounds like any other horn to me. I really haven't been around a bunch of other cars to have a horn comparison. Oh wait, there was this one time I was next to this low rider in East LA with a horn that played "La CoCa Racha" which made me laugh to the point I almost pissed my pants.

All in all, I like my IS250 horn....it gets the job done!

I had a girly horn once! In high school, my old Isuzu truck made the most pathetic sound that would also change pitch like it was going through puberty.

I do like the sound of Lexus horns. They sound luxuriously loud and demanding.

Living in the Chicagoland area yields heavy horn use. I changed my out to match the General Lee!!

It's loud enough to be heard. Sound itself is nothing special compared to other cars.

Sometimes loud horn makes people panic and that could cause some issues on the road.
