^^^ Is it because they "think" they need to appeal to a wider audience by making the GTI quiet? I don't know about regulations, they're obviously allowed to make the exhaust louder, like the Fiat 500 Abarth or even the Si on newer cars. It's disappointing that the GTI is supposed to be their sporty car, yet sounds so muffled. I don't know if the Golf R sounds that quiet stock as well.
