    I recently saw the same thing happen, but with a old McLaren racecar starting up. The driver set off a 599 GTB Fiorano's car alarm that was parked next to him, shortly after he started the engine. On a side note, I just realized that the Maserati GranTurismo's car alarm sounds exactly like the 599's.

    Fantastic.

    Does anyone know how the FXX gets his sound? is it just the exhaust itself (+ material, im guessing inconel?) + intake or is the engine internally modified also (ie more valves than the enzo?)

    Any loud exhaust can set off car alarms? What's so impressive about that?

    Most cars don't set off car alarms on start-up.
