fight the ticket...they can give u a ticket for too loud music, if you reach the certain decibel. The concern for the law enforcment officer is that you might not be able to hear emergency vechile that are approaching. go to court and tell them that you have stock stereo system.
I listen to my music at 35 windows open.
25 when windows are close...GOOD LUCK!

I was followed by an officer several years back for cranking my gen 1 IS300 stock system. It did have some bump to it. When I noticed the officer, I turned it off and he moved on. I have heard of people receiving tickets for stock systems. Be happy the ML rocks (LOL). I would always try to be considerate of others in traffic while having the windows down. Not everyone likes a mariachi band next to them (I do, but not everyone else).
