              its extremely raspy to have an X-pipe.. that usually completely takes care of the rasp

                IMO an x pipe gives cars a much higher pitched exhaust tone

                      i think the v6s sound really wimpy. i made the guy at the local stealership start one up and rev it a few times and it really bummed me out.

                      current car- 95 Trans am- bolt ons, parked and collecting dust. why? because **** it

                          Yeah, it's definitely not the meanest sounding car on the street. It has a decent groan under hard acceleration from inside the car, but overall it does not have a muscle car sound at all.

                          It also doesn't help that the engine ticks at idle like it has a dozen frozen lifters...apparently it's normal for the car but sounds like crap.

                            yeah i noticed a slight tick on the one dude started up too.

                            the exhuast note just chaps my ***, if nissan can put a decent exhaust on the 370z and make it sound as good as it does there's no reason gm cant, i mean hell for 30 large it better sound good goddamn it.

                              there is a guy that works in my area that has one, he loves blasting his car in 1st gear. unfortunately its one of the worst sounding cars, worse than the 3.8. i wish chevy spent more time fixing the exhaust tone.
