I took the Geo to work today. I had forgotten how much fun it is to commute with an underpowered, high revving car that has a straight pipe. 
That is all.

The Aspire had a hole in the pipe big enough to fit your fist. I took it to (and sometimes beyond) redline with every shift. Good fun...
I loved it when I had to cut a hole in the exhaust of my Z-24 when the catalytic converter plugged up. Lots of nice burbling on the upshift/downshift/pulling-up-to-the-stoplight.
I'll let you know how it is when I install the header on my '96 SL2 and rip the old exhaust system out behind it.
After listening to a rotary running nothing but headers I don't mind them quite so much. 
But straight pipes on a piston engine does have a certain appeal. 
I recently put a new mid-pipe on my 318ti after some road construction ripped everything from the cat back off of the car.
60 miles at highway speeds with the exhaust dumping right below you will make your ears bleed
I loved having my 18” Cherry Bomb muffler on my Metro. Had a turn down that piped it down just in front of the gas tank. I used to set off car alarms with it.
