My friend brought his new Fiat Abarth over, he said every toyobaru owner is jealous of the exhaust sound. And it is a nice sound, it's all fizzy and a nice sound, the car is great too, nice roomy interior, and I could lean the seat all the way back and it was still a comfortable passenger riding position. It was so fast, I wasn't expecting the turbo bubble and when it hit that car was a rocket! Plush suspension handled potholes, great city car.

Yeah the sound on the abarth is great all the time, just sounds fizzy, barking, and a little drunk and loud, but it doesn't have any of the top end scream of our NA toyobaru.

And the shifter in our BRZ/FR-S is so much better than the Fiat's - it was plush feeling, but too soft and vague, shifting 1st - 2nd felt like it was a mile away.
