Question 08 G37S Coupe vs 11 G37S Coupe -- Exhaust Note Question

So I just traded in my 2008 G37S Coupe for a 2011 G37S Coupe and noticed that the exhaust note on the 2011 sounds more subtle than the the 2008 did.

Am i having hearing problems or do they actually sound different?

I think its more to do with age of the exhaust....Noticed that my exhaust is/has been getting louder with age....

My 2011's exhaust sounds just as loud as my 2008 did

But the engine and exhaust open up a lot more over time, this is true.

Has anyone done a resonator delete on the 2011s? I had one on my 2008 but since i am 100% certain the exhaust sounds different from 2008 to 2011 models, i think i will be holding off on that mod until i hear one.

Remember... We thought that the 08s sounded subdued at first. But over time the sound opened up

give it a few thousand miles. i dont think they used any new exhaust or anything in the 2011 g's so it theoretically should should the same.
