different starter sounds

So I have my 95 sc400. And I want to buy another 95. When mine starts up it has a strong, higher pitch sound. This one sounds low and weak sounding. More like starting a truck.
Any ideas

Could be as simple as corroded battery terminals. Start with that and then check the wires. Those are cheap easy fixes to try first.
