Default LMS vs F-Sport exhaust

Recently bought an IS350 that came with a LMS exhaust. I love the tone/growl of the LMS but its a little to loud for my taste. Was wondering if the F-Sport(with stock midpipes) is quiter? I listened to a few youtube ciips but its hard to judge loudness of the exhaust.

I have no comparison, but have the f sport exhaust and stock pipes. It is very quiet on idle, great growl on acceleration. Almost no drone below 80 mph. IMO it is the perfect blend of throaty without being ricey.

The F-Sport would def be quieter, especially with the stock midpipe. But at the same time, you really do have a rare exhaust. Keep it!

I believe the LMS exhaust is a little louder than the F-Sport. I'd keep the LMS because it's rare and not too many people have it.
