@irene I’ve hit the ripe old age of appreciating the stock look.
The stock exhaust sound though… hope to change once mine is paid off.
@RGPphotog I took OUT the stock sound maker and it’s so much better. Less high and whiny. I even got a compliment on the sound the last time I was at the Mazda dealer for a recall. 😂
Lots of videos on how. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2TGdggN9T0
My spouse wouldn't let me get a manual, (valid reasons at the time) so my ‘22 is an auto – which did NOT come with the sound tube.
I um.... added one. But it is modified with the silicon tubes which change the tone and kills a lot of the raspy high freqs. I like it better than what it was without. It's subtle.

I have read, (but not personally confirmed) the ND3 sound tube has be re-tuned and does sound better than previous.
