Yeh I like my Corsas. Could be a little louder for me, but no drone is just bliss.

Yeah, I've had the Corsa's for about 9 months now and they are nice.

Funny thing is I recently bought a Jeep Grand Cherokee and put a Flowmaster on it to go along with the 5.7 liter Hemi. Gotta tell 'ya, the Jeep sounds better than my Vette! I may be looking for a more aggressive sounding exhaust system in the next few months.

Anybody want to buy a slightly used Corsa Indy w/3.5 inch Pro-tips?

I like mine too: great V-8 sound; their method of canceling the drone is brilliant (with tuned self-cancelling instead of baffles, glass pack, etc.).

Hey Cliff, which ones did you get, the Indy's? I like the sound, but couldn't find a good price, so I went with Bassani BX's.

Maybe...

To the original poster, what model did you get specifically? Any X pipe or headers?

I like the sound of my Corsa's and I will be changing them out soon for some 3" Stainless Works to go to a complete 3" setup on my FI car, however they sound very good even on a blower car
