My car has no headers, all 4 cats in place and no NPP. The sound is perfect, and can be loud at times even under light throttle conditions and never to loud for a daily driver which my car is.

I have never heard a Camaro owner so confident that speakers sound just as good as the real thing. I actually design custom sound systems and there are a million variables that go into the reproduction of sound and there is no way any regular person has a system hooked up to their laptop that can provide near lifelike sound from an average recording.

Don't take this the wrong way, because I get what you are saying, but hearing a nice exhaust clip on YouTube is nothing like feeling that same exhaust rumble in person. There is no way to compare a stock exhaust to an aftermarket exhaust fully over speakers and recordings. You can get a good idea of how they can sound though, and I think that is about as good as we are going to get unless you hear it in person.
