I'd say both the sound and weight savings are the reasons for having a Ti exhaust. I own a Tomei 60S titanium exhaust and have tried a couple of other SS systems. Ti is definitely more aggressive/raspy/metallic and louder than SS. I'm not sure if it's just the material or the thinner walls, or a combination of the two.
It basically has a more "racecar/motorsports" sound, which I love, but I can understand it's not for everyone, especially on a daily driver. However, I've been daily driving with the Tomei for almost 6 years now haha. I think it suits the fun nature of this car.
