difference coupe and sedan sound ?

Is there a difference in sound between coupe and sedan.

If yes where is this difference, and is it easy to modify the sedan sound to match the coupe sound.

I find the g37 sedan sound a bit muted compare to g35 sedan

I think an aftermarket intake & exhaust will solve that prolem.

i think the made the coupe louder since it's a "sports coupe" and the target market are people who want have a more "sportier" car than the sedan. that's why they tone down the sedan a bit, but you can still hear the VQ... it's just a bit softer

Isn't the sedan lighter than the coupe? Ironically.
