350z's Horn...Weak?
Arrite, First of all I don't really care about the Z's horn because personally I don't really use it. The reason I'm starting this thread is because everytime i drive with my gf and i honk the horn (only God knows why) she laughs. She tells me that for such a nice/fast car the horn is weak. Honestly, I think its pretty weak horn too...very *unmanly* haha. I think my niece's bike has a louder horn. Does anyone think so too? Just wanted to see what others thought. I mean if im gonna be needing the horn for whatever reason it may be, it should be loud enough to actually be useful. I dk that's just my 2 cents.

If you ever think the Z horn is weak, listen to the Mustang Mach 1's horn. You hear it and swear some 16 year old girl was getting out of her pink VW beetle.

My Z has a fairly good horn compared to some of the other cars I have owned.

It's not the lack of decibels that bothers me, but how difficult it is to activate. You really have to push hard, in the center, to honk.

Or Hella. The Z horn is OK, but don't expect anyone to hear you if they are about to crash into your Z.
