Which Exhaust System?

I need advise on deciding what exhaust system to go w/on my 2000 auto. I'm looking for a good deep tone @ idle. Want it to be heard when standing on the gas, but not like straights. No res. @ hwy speeds.
If anyone has a set that meets my needs for sale, let me know.

I also have a 2000 auto and had the same criteria for a cat-back. After a lot of research I went with Magnaflow. It's not one of the most widely used on the forums but it has a nice deep tone, quiet when cruising, no resonance, and it sounds awesome at WOT. I didn't use the x pipe but that is supposed to make it quieter. The fit is great and the mufflers are polished to a mirror finish. I have been very happy with the setup.

I too like my Magnaflows but there was a drone at like 1600rpm...installed the x-pipe and it disappeared. But I agree with ET listen to as many as you can as none of them are cheap and you want to be happy with what you get!!

I just put a Corsa Touring exhaust on our '02 Vert, last Wednesday, along with the Corsa x-pipe. Absolutely no problem with resonance. To be honest, it is a little too quiet for me at idle and cruise. Sounds good at WOT, however, but I could have stood a little more noise at idle and cruise. Wife likes it, however.
