Besides a sports cars good-looks, it’s the sound that it makes that turns heads when pulling up to a red light. Porsche announced today that its engineers have developed a new sports exhaust system for the latest generation 911. The new exhaust system will be available as an option on new models starting February.

At the touch of a button the exhaust system switches over to a more sporty and emotional sound. The new exhaust system is made of modified stainless-steel main silencers and stands out through its two dual tailpipes. Porsche says that the ”heart of the system is the exhaust flap on each main silencer activated by the engine’s electronic control system and switching over to a more sporting sound as soon as the driver activates the sound mode.”

Pricing for the new system will start at $2,500.
