doesnt sound all that bad u should here the 91 u sold me its much louder lol. has the car been smoking like that for a while? or is it just the exhaust burning **** off you should go to the dealer and have them look at it they advise us to call hotline for white smoke on start up like that.

I seem to recall corksport always being among the loudest of exausts.



why no racingbeat? they always seem to get the noise "just right"

I was getting a slamming deal on a speed6 because they are not going to be making them next year and I guess the dealerships want to get rid of them.



I figured with AWD I could use it as a spare car, but the wife did not want to drive a manual in the snow.



I got a new Jeep Grand Cherokee instead, its boring, but serves its purpose as a spare vehicle.



I just handed my Mazda 6 in Friday, I still dont know if I could go another few years with the basically the same car that we had for the last 4 years. You dont find it a bit boring to be driving the same car?
