But any car can sound good with exhaust modifications ;) I'm looking for a stock car with ugly looks and great exhaust note!

Couldnt have been more wrong with that pal. Exhaust modifications dont make miracles.

Before I answer can you tell me what "realistic" factors affect exhaust sound - I mean we are not likely able to change the shape of the body for better acoustics, or anything in the engine. But from headers on, it's all up for grabs right? There is a whole scientific discipline of exhaust tuning and I believe that there are enough variables available in order to create a wildly different sound to the original?

Also for this article - I'm trying to find the exhaust note of the Lagonda, I think it's hideous but it is an extremely impressive car and with an AM engine surely sounds so (all vids so far are gentle reviews with ofc the fucking music :P)

Completely polarizing styling, but a car with a sick stock exhaust note is an Infiniti FX35. I personally like the design, but not many people do.

Straight-piped CVPI - the answer to everything. It's my friend's car and the film does not do it justice.

Well, it has stock headers, which is where most of the change in exhaust note comes from but it doesn't help if the engine itself sounds terrible. The exhaust only helps making it louder, and the headers help with some aspects of the sound.

It had a Coyote V8 right?

I think the engine is pretty polarizing too! Lots of people don't like the VQ35, and a lot do!

Nope, just a 2V 4.6. Open pipes from the cats back sound bloody glorious in this car.
