    I usually only use the horn in the Ferrari. And that is when I am leaving just to say hi / good-bye.:D
    In another car it is rare, but usually to let someone know the light has been green for awhile (politely), or if there is impending doom.

    I usually honk to keep midgets off the road. Ninjas are fast enough to avoid me, but midgets need a little help.

    I also honk to say hi, and when people merge in my lane. When people act like idiots, I like to wave furiously like an ape on crack. They don't get it.

    I only use my horn when signing the theme song from Green Acres, you know!

    PS: The horn on my 348 sounds like a horn that Richard Simmons would have installed!

    The Alfa Spider had anemic electric horns too. I had aftermarket air horns fitted, with a selector switch for one or the other or both. Turns out, with the selector in "both", I can tap the horn and get a little "meep", or lean on it and get the air. I didn't have a source for Fiamm horns at the time, so I got something a smidge more "semi".

    I rarely use the air horns in traffic. I used them once when a Corola was drifting into my lane while I was still using it. The Corola was instantly redecorated with a "Gurney Bubble". :D Good morning, sunshine

    I always wanted to retrofit the Celica AllTrac with a WAV track from "Godzilla" :p Maybe when the EVO's warranty expires, ...

    Steve the way you phrased this has me thinking you're under the weather. Are you feeling alright?

    I'm just going to go ahead and prescribe a heady dose of Biki Thread posts to you; 4 times a day, 8 photos a time for at least 3 months. That should clear your symptoms right up. You won't need to consult me or check in, as I trust you'll listen to my advice.

    I usually only honk if people don't go at a green light. When people do stupid crap while driving I usually don't react in time to honk, and I try to be more forgiveable anyway since I know how terrible I was 1 1/2 years ago.

    To warn airhead Folsom soccer moms with a cell phone plugged into their ear and their eyes on the visor mirror that they are about to merge their eight ton SUV into my little sports car. :mad:


    ... and idiot people in genreal that always stop in a dedicated, non-signal controlled right turn lane that has it's own lane upon completing the turn.

    I usually use it to have fun, or call someone over with it. I think I've only honked at someone for idiot driving twice, and both deserved it without doubt.
