I wonder how long it will be before cars come with a mike at the exhaust, feeding sound into the stereo via a DSP unit that has both pre-set and customizable digital sound "enhancers". The DME would also feed in rpm input to make the color and intensity of the sound rpm-dependent for a whole spectrum of exhaust sounds to match any mood. Come to think if it, forget the exhaust mike. The rpm input would be enough, and the DSP synthesizer would take it from there. And for those also interested in the outside world hearing their creation: outward facing speakers strategically positioned near the exhaust. Any buyers?
