I had the same concerns as you, but I've had the F-sport exhaust for a few weeks now, and I just love it. I felt the stock exhaust was just missing that nice note that compliments all the other sporty features of the car. The F sport system sounds great, and there is really no cabin drone on the highway at all. You'll probably forget you even have the exhaust while cruising on hwy. But driving around town and making maneuvers, however, that extra oomph in sound will always be there to bring a smile to your face. Not to mention, I think the polished mufflers add a great look to the car from behind. Unless you want basically no exhaust sound at all (and if that's the case, you wouldn't have considered this in the first place), I would honestly re-consider. I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Ahhh, now I'm back to wanting to get it... Just wish there was a way to demo it in person to feel better about it.

Some of you asked for full throttle video from 0-60mph.

whoa, that sounds really good.

sounds as though, 0 to 4000 rpm, exhaust is main sound
after 4100rpm, the intake sound takes over.

Sounds great!

BTW, do you have an aftermarket or F-sport intake installed as well? Or stock box?
