It also comes to mind another reason that adds to this phenomena: the car doesn't sound smooth when it is in high rpm's. The higher rpm range is where this car really shines and whenever you drive it in the higher rpm's (at least with stock exhaust) the boxer sounds angry, like you are hurting it or something... it sounds smooth and growly in the lower to mid range rpm's and then once you get into its happy place, the engine pretends like its unhappy, which probably tricks a lot of people into driving it at low rpm's only. If it sounded as smooth in the high rpm range people might drive it more like its meant to be driven.
