Another exhaust sound data point

Gotcha. I do think that the car has beautiful underlying sound signature. Has nice deep, bass induction note. I can perceive how such a note could be "felt" sitting inside the cabin, as opposed to standing outside.

For some, it is!! We all have different expectations!!
I'm bit unclear about this comment. If the car doesn't sound good outside, how can it sound better inside? Do the sound signature and characteristics change when the sound enters the cabin? If anything, it gets subdued inside due to cabin insulation, in terms of volume. Is the sound being piped inside? If so, it could have a multiplying effect due to smaller confines and reflections. In the Spyder, I hear and sense a significant change with the top and down (windows up). With the hard top, the overall muffled effect could be even higher.

I'm assuming those 2 clear tubes are vacuum lines?

And I gotta say, that anthracite interior trim looks spectacular IMO.

Here's a perfect example of an exhaust that, IMO, doesn't make the car sound any better at all, just louder and buzzier. Does not improve the tone at all.

Got it; thanks. By the same token, we don't want to drown out the engine/intake sound either, by the exhaust! It has got nice, deep bass. An ideal mod would be to combine the engine/intake bass sound with amplified exhaust note. Just a raspy, loud exhaust wouldn't cut it! If you follow motorcycles, Akrapovic is the standout in providing a nice, deep, beautiful sound without being obnoxious.

Can't tell anything from that video because you're shifting before the engine even begins to hit its stride.

FWIW - was just chatting with Scott at Fabspeed. They just got a shop 718 GT4 delivered and are now working on a full line up. They will develop a SS system to start with so price should be a bit more "friendly" than some of the current Ti offerings in Europe. ETA is end of June. Not promoting one over another, just providing info.

Im very thankful that these cars dont have electronic valves like other cars. They get CEL when you mess with those.
So any noticeable change in sound? And no CEL im assuming
