Default Horn Help!

My wife says the horn on my 2006 350z is not zzz worthy. I don't lean on it very much (concerns about road rage!) But when I do need it, it seems pretty wimpy. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Aftermarket exhaust.

I forget that my car has a horn because I never use it.

Unless you are in NYC or Boston, you don’t need more horn.

Most of the Z drivers don’t use the horn often because they are in front and not behind traffic.

There's been plenty of times when I've wanted to disconnect the horn in my gf's car. I think she does it now to annoy me.

The only time I use my horn is if I'm behind someone I know. Then it's like the horn button wont release. It's the weirdest thing.

Only time I use it is to move along the cell phone user ahead of me at the green light. Seems to work well enough for that.

That's where a light flywheel and loud exhaust come in handy.

She'll use it then in my peripheral vision I can see her look at me and smile. She scares the **** out of me sometimes. We were almost ran over one night by a semi merging onto the freeway. She didn't even see him.

Tell her to put the cell phone down and pay attention to where she is driving.

Also, she shouldn't be driving anyways. The man is supposed to drive.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I'll do what Spike says and always be out in front.
You guys are funny.

She wasn't texting I was. I'm not going to offer an excuse why she didn't see it because I have no idea why. More importantly my Z almost lost its owner that night.
