Default "Oops" means new exhaust, advice?

30 minutes ago the love of my life either failed to engage the parking brake or put it into 1st when she parked the car (07 manual 6) in our driveway. I went outside to pull in the new-to-us (3 days) 3.6 Outback and saw the 6 sitting in the neighbor's yard. It rolled back and thankfully didn't hurt anyone or property. I hope. Crazy sight.

I was already thinking about replacing the exhaust and now it's necessary because the right muffler took the brunt of the curb impact. Useless, hanging.

I'm also a VW guy who held onto a 99 Jetta Wolfsburg for 13 years, with a Techtonics Tuning exhaust that held up for 12 years with a great, deep, muted tone (granted, 115 HP). So that's my reference point...

What's a good fit for a mildly sporty cat-back on the 6?

If it's a V6 you seriously need to read this: https://www.mazdaforum.com/forum/maz...-design-28940/
the 2007 V6 is same as in the article!

It's a 4-CYL, so advice/options specific to the little engine would be appreciated.
