I might be overly sensitive to car noise but I find revving engines extremely annoying. Fortunately (and by choice) I live in a relatively low traffic area, so at least at night it's got almost no traffic, but during the day it's got enough of it to force me to shut close the thermopane windows and doors AND turn on an electric fan heater without the heat, so the low frequency white noise it makes masks the occasional roaring of the car engine passing by.

Also it's not like all the cars, most cars pass by with their engine on idle so they make little noise. Every now and then (which by law of statistics translates to always, eventually after some time), some idiot accelerates aggressively when their clutch is disengaged, resulting in the engine squealing like a demented stuck pig and me almost getting a seizure out of stress.

And then there's the occasional SUV with tank tracks instead of tires (figuratively speaking, they have tires suitable for climbing muddy hills, not cruising through residential areas) which zooms around at 80Km/h, in this case can't hear the engine because the darn tracks make so much noise you can hear them from several blocks away.

Hate. Cars.

Also an unpopular opinion which will 100% guarantee I get fiercely downvoted: "they" should make gas prices not 10-20% but 4x - 8x higher. So the vast majority of the idiots would have to take the public transportation system instead of the current standard of 3 cars for a family of two and sitting in traffic for 90 minutes to make what would otherwise be a 20-30 minutes transit. Differential price for individual (luxury) transportation.
