What's up with these grown ass men honking the horns of cars on display in 2012 PIMS? Encountered three d...ass whose checking the interior of a CRV then honking horns, startling the people whose looking at the engine bay. And another one kept honking to call the attention of his companion , whose checking a different car, so that he can have his picture taken with him inside the car!!! Di bale sana kung bata, pero 30-40s na mga ito.
Another of those things that would make you say...

August 24th, 2012 09:53 PM #16I would understand the short, partial blast just to check what the stock horns are - kung meep meep lang or potpot na.
Pero if more than that or kung may tao, duh?!?!

August 24th, 2012 10:22 PM #17Pero you don't check the horns of show car. Especially with hood up you're gonna startle other people checking out the engine. Stock horns are more often than not mediocre. Not even sa showroom ginagawa to. The horns will not be deal breaker naman eh. I've been to few carshow sa states, even revving a V8 just couple of times may nagagalit, outdoor carshow pa un. Originally Posted by IMm29

August 25th, 2012 09:24 AM #18Why not? I don't think it's a bad thing. More often, local dealers do not change much on carshow display units unless these units were brought in only specifically for the show. Originally Posted by Sweetlucious

What i find inconsiderate is if there are folks checking the engine out and some guy behind the wheel goes beep or longer.
Unless magkakilala pala sila. At na-one up yung nasa engine.
