I’m not typically a fan of overly loud exhausts, but when it’s sensible I can make an exception. My WRX is, to my knowledge, all stock. When I start out up, it’s slightly louder than the average car, but the tone is very low and smooth. From inside the car, it sounds beautiful. Nothing like the typical Infiniti muffler-delete that makes my eardrums bleed.
The unequal length header rumble on a boxer engine is always amazing and best enjoyed with a modest exhaust - either what the WRX has stock, which as you said is just slightly louder than the average car - or a sensible custom exhaust. Again, NOT straight pipes or a hack job of a muffler delete.
