Default hks exhaust

does anyone know anything about hks and their exhaust(s)? i called a few days ago and they said they will be releasing their own aftermarket one in a few months. and as for the factory upgrade, that has not been cancelled yet, but they aren't sure what is gonna happen with it.

i just want to see what possibilities there are before buying... i want to get the tanabe but i wanted to find out more about what hks is going to do first.

Im curious about this as well. Im actually sort of shocked by how cheap and weak the engine and stock exhaust sound compared to other sport cars, G35 anyone?

Cheap? Can't say I agree with that. The Lexus engine/exhaust sounds much more refined then any G35 i've ever driven. The 3.5 in the IS is also a heck of a lot smoother than Infiniti's 3.5. Sure, it's quieter and not as agressive as the Infiniti but definatly not cheap, that should be expected. Since when has a Lexus vehicle been loud?
