LOL
I track mine, and it is [way too slowly for my liking] being turned into a SpecBoxster race car, so I picked "racy".

I do what I can to exercise the car each day, but traffic-choked commutes and increasing law enforcement presence has been putting a bit of a damper on things lately.
After as close a call as I've had in 10 years last week, combined with recent rain, I've been driving the more anonymous car in the fleet (dark gray GTI).

I agree, it did sound like exhaust. My S has a rattle at startup that buggs the crap out of me...never hear it under acceleration.
