Honestly that’s the best objective video I’ve seen. And it’s pretty average, lacklustre even.
Thing that started me on this is not that the car is a threat to my manhood rather that I realised for the first time how much I was being targeted (versus other family or friends) through highly advanced advertising and social media PR / fake crowd stuff.
The layers of bullshit are fascinating, investment and extent of blitz nothing short of mind boggling.
I mean take this video, an ad, and where does truth and objectivity stand in the face of paying some independent test lab as part of the video prologue to the icing, the real ad:
What’s ridiculous is the number of wood ducks on here lapping up that Hyundai Motor Group, the third largest car manufacturer, a multinational with AUD$100 Billion in revenue, is actually the underdog and somehow an entitled battler in this segment. What a load of crap.
The Korean media onslaught should be recognised for what it is - a foreign product bankrolled by one of the world’s wealthiest companies attempting to king hit our KOM on social media with a disgusting pissy leaf blower.
Nah, not gonna suck that shitup. I mean compare to the local hero:

That's pretty funny! :)
Someone will probably think you're serious, though ...

Haha, give me a couple of hundgy grand and I’ll make a structured cinematic porn clip with me “dynamically expressing” (caning arse off) a whisky leaf blower around witches hats, an excitable narrator and a few blokes overdubbing shade on the fat Euro tanks. Coz you know, Korea’s balance of trade with Western world means arguably better car overall at this point in history costs 4-5x as much.
Yeah nothing to see here but corporate hubris, a pissy foreign effort to fix owners’ lament for the loss of our venerable V8 Commie :p

I don't get bombarded by any sly advertising when I'm at home, I figure I block about 99% of that crap :)

Sounds better than most V6 Commodore sports exhausts though .
Agreed. Sound better than any V6 that has ever been put in a Commodore and the Sports system sound better than the aural bastardisation most P Platers proliferate with their 4 inch twin straight through mufflerless systems on their fully sick SV6's that struggle to pull their own weight off from the traffic lights.

You would need to compare the sound to a twin turbo commodore, be that like one of the more serious TT modified racecars or the LF3 (SIDI TT) with an aftermarket exhaust.

Else you know horses for courses at least a SIDI with a decent set of cams:
