When the temperature goes under minus 6 C and that I have to drive, I warm up the car as usual while driving in a calm way. When the engine is fully warmed up and that the road is cleared, I put the pedal to the metal and it creates this.

A huge smoke screen behind me. I love it, it never gets old!

Well, it's a Mercedes, so there isn't a whole lot to begin with. More plumbing for the exhaust than a small house! Headers, cats, two resonators, a muffler...just too much!

It's got a nice noise when you plant the pedal all the way down, but otherwise it's got a bit of a drone, nothing unpleasant though.

A co-worker friend of mine and I were both driving to work. I was ahead of him, and it was a humid, cold day. Every time I floored it there was a massive cloud of that condensation "smoke" that he then had to drive through. I kept doing it to him repeatedly all the way down the highway. It was hilarious. When we got to work he says to me "YOU WERE DOING THAT ON PURPOSE!?"
