Which Corsa exhaust is this? And finally, can I EVER get my 2000 C5 to sound this good?

You could make your C5 sound even better.

If you're on a budget pick up some XSpower longtubes, and for the exhaust I vote for some Borla Stingers - though I may be a little biased .

Unfortunately, I'd prefer to stay legal - longtubes won't work in California (visual inspection failure I'm told). You have to admit, that C6 sounds incredible if in fact its only modification is the exhaust.

Oh I see. California .
Yep the C6 does sound good, but you could still get your C5 to sound amazing. Some shorty headers, catted x-pipe, and a nice exhaust will keep you legal and sound awesome.

Before getting an exhaust system try to hear one on a car in person and not only on a video. I know someone with an exhaust system that sounds great on video but when you hear the car on the street it sounds like a turbo V6, not a Corvette.
