Typical MR2: nice and sharp!

I hate it when a fourpot sounds to dark.
Interesting actually. I think it sounds quite good too under load but I was wondering if I was bias as it's my car. The exhaust is shocking you see. It is literally a standard exhaust with the last 6" chopped off and a bit of metal drain pipe welded on the end to make it louder.

Its interesting that practically everyone in this thread has posted exhaust sound clips. With the right exhaust you can make most cars sound nice - practically all cars with more than 4 cyl sound good in their own way.

And lets face it, induction noise is the most important as a driver - the only people who ever "appriciate" (used in the loosest sense) a loud exhaust are passers by.

hehe It's a small world is it not? I still can't believe a Ford Cologne can make a noise like that, can you?
