Just like we love rockin' the JDM here because its rare and baller status, i bet people over in japan are rockin' the USDM goodies (do we even have any goodies? lol)

.... just like if the ISX50 had clear turn signals, and the F had the amber, people would be all over the amber turn signals

LOL - absolutely right! Strict JDM is too much trouble for me.

I'll see if I can get a clip posted later today or this week. Hopefully my camera can accurately capture the sound - "piercing" is the word I'd use to describe it. 118 decibels!

I'm planning to keep the red color - I like the contrast underneath the grill.

Video added to the first post. Unfortunately, it's impossible to tell how the loud the horns really are from the mic on the camera. But you get an idea of what the pitch is like.
