I'm wondering if the American versions will even have the tubing which directs sound to the cabin. There are already changes that have to be made for the car to be LHD, and I'm sure many of you remember hearing a while back that we may get a more aggresive sounding exhaust, since we (or at least, 49 of our states) have less strict requirements for automotive sound control.

I'm sure I'm just thinking aloud here, or in type as it may be, but if they were already considering a louder cat-back, why bother redesigning the sound piping from the intake tract to the cabin when it can be left out altogether while still giving you a similar net effect on sound? I'm in all likelihood completely wrong though, just spitballing.
