I love hearing those big pops when upshifting between gears. It's almost like an orgasm every time.

With the windows up (or in my case top down)cruising at 75mph in 6th - dead quiet. I only hear the wind and the tires on the pavement.

You can hear them as you accelerate through the gears, but Corsas are famous for no resonance or that annoying head-ache inducing drone that some of the other systems produce. At WOT - LOUD! But that's when you want them to roar - otherwise what's the point?

I agree. It's the perfect exhaust. It's incredible they could make it so there is no exhaust noise cruising but when you get on it it's loud as heck.
