Wife says exhaust is not loud enough

So I finally got my 2013 SS out today. The wife and I waited all winter to get it out and it was nice enough today. Took it out on the highway and we loved the ride. She says to me that the exhaust is not loud enough and I should get a new exhaust, then she says, " I can't believe I just said that" but "how much would it be?" I said I don't know. So, what is the best way to get it more "throaty" I just want to bring it up a notch.

Thanks for your input.

Love this car

Corsa catback = loud...

Many others as well... axle back will give you sound if you don't want to spend the money on catback... consider headers and high flow cats as well.
