Exhaust note of coupe vs. sedan

Why does the exhaust note of the G35/7 coupe sound so much more throaty (like the 350Z) than the sedan's? Is there a way to make the sedan's exhaust growl like the coupe's?

lol.... This has been beaten to death sooooo many times.
It's in the muffler....
IIRC they use frequency tuning/noise cancellation technology to 'tune' that sound.
It's part of the coupe marketing strategy.

there's no way of just putting on the coupe mufflers...they're totally different

best way to get a coupe-ish sound is to get some stuff done to your exhaust...there's a few different options

I've always thought the coupe/Z/FX exhaust sounded nasal.... and too ricey.
