Best Sounding Exhaust $1k or Less

Disclaimer: I'm a total noob when it comes to exhausts. I was never really into them because my view of them have been jaded by Honda fart cans that do no good except wake everyone else in the neighborhood up.

The time has come, due to a rear end collision, that I do the research necessary in finding a suitable exhaust to replace the stock one. It'd mean a great deal to me if I could hear some feedback from forum members that are quite experienced at recalling exhaust sounds.

What I'm looking for (excuse my high expectations) is something not too heavy on the ears in terms of low rumbles, since I do daily drive this car. Jaguar's F-Types have great sounding exhausts. What would brand of exhaust would closely resemble that sound? Again, excuse my nub question.


Here is the video for reference:

Perrin 2.5'' / Nameless / Invidia Q300.
Please use the search button and do some research. Aforementioned exhausts are the MOST daily drive-able. Everyone's tolerance to sound and volume are different and subjective.

Yep, I've looked at the sticky. Concurrently hitting youtube & forum search buttons to see which exhaust might be better.

I was looking into the MagnaFlow Stainless Steel Exhaust #15157, but I take other people's considerations into thought very carefully!
