Best thing I saw on my commute last night

Was riding through a fairly nice neighborhood (River Market, Kansas City, MO) and heard one of those really old-school 5-tone car alarms going off. OK, probably a BMW or a Merc or something.

Nope.

Plymouth Breeze. With a mismatched fender, bondo-repaired door, and repainted matte black hood.

Hey, at least it was annoying and loud.

Pretty much all aftermarket alarms use that same siren. My Viper one does in my Acura, though the alarm has been in the car more than 10 years now.

However your post reminds me of the movie Friday, which had a couple of POS cars with alarms on them haha.
