POV: you’re calmly driving down the road and are overtaken by a car with a modified exhaust.
Carmagheddon, an Italian collective of automotive hackers, decided to go one step further with this gigantic exhaust.
YOU CAN SEE IT IN ACTION IN THE VIDEO DOWN BELOW!
It shouldn’t be particularly surprising either as these are the same guys that gave us the world’s lowest car.
Back to the video and the bizarre modification didn’t exactly go to plan, however.
They had to cap their speed at 105 km/h (65 mph).
“It was the limit for our ears,” they confessed.
“Because it was just too loud.”
See for yourself in the video – it’s pretty extreme.
