Cars are already subject to noise restrictions. So effectively loud cars are banned. There is just little enforcement for most of it.

What does it matter if they aren’t enforceable?

That may work to a point, people who get off on their noisy shits are more than willing to put in the work themselves.
I don’t think you understand why some cars are louder than others

BECAUSE THEY ARE STROOOOOONG dude! That’s why loud! I LIIIIKKKEE THE STRONG FAST MACHINE! Strong manly, fast manly, LOUD MANLY!
That’s not what homie is getting at.
Irritatingly loud cars don’t come from the manufacturer like that. When you buy a car there’s no “annoyingly loud” option.
People modify their cars. The objective is better performance, but the car will probably be louder.
In what world? Are you naive? AMG alone is thriving their business model on loud cars. There is luxury brands like Ferrari, Lamborghini, Königsegg which are loud by design. There is muscle cars from Ford, Corvette, Cadillac etc.etc. There is loud Audis, Porsche, BMWs, Mercedes. There es even a ridiculously loud Volkswagen Golf GTI or R.
Like what?!?!
Edit: they even having a sound check feature on their websites lmao (at least Mercedes)
Edit: for reference the Golf R has even a membrane build into to cockpit to amplify its sound to the passengers.
Let’s refocus the police funds of shooting or falsely arresting POC, and instead ticketing and enforcing the loud car situation.
Who needs cops? I believe CA passed a bill to trial automatic enforcement of this issue last year. Detects excessive noise and photographs the license plates just like speed cameras.
I’m waiting to see where they will trial it. I haven’t heard anything recently.
Agreed. Take 90+% of their funding, and use it for preventative measures instead.
Habeas corpus makes those tickets unenforceable
Is that true? They still send them out.

This goes over a lot of the legal problems of these systems. You should always contest a camera ticket
This article says the opposite though.
I am not a lawyer and I have wondered about the constitutional questions of these. But according to this the courts have largely allowed them.
That part is incorrect. There have been many districts that have thrown them out or outlawed them entirely.

Now it seems like you are reaching. Ballot initiatives have nothing to do with whether they are constitutional or not.
Our po-po don’t shoot POC (generally) but we still have loud cars.
I know what I’m saying is not objective data, but where I live I hear a ton of motorcycles that are tweaked to remove the silencers and noise protections
