I was going to suggest lmperformance.com until I looked at their site, $689 WOW!!
I picked mine up from them a few months ago at $575 shipped.

Corsa is some very good quality stuff; if you are looking for no drone you can’t beat Corsa for axle-backs.
The sound is awesome as well, quite at cruise and ballsy at WOT; after a few hundred miles their tone get a bit deeper while still maintaining a race car sound; they have this sound that I can’t describe you have to hear them.

At $680 I don’t know if they are worth the money but if you do get them you won’t be sorry.

They are really high in price right now.....680 is about right from what I have seen.....wait a month and then see or settle for a different muffler @ 680 you can get a new midpipe and new mufflers and still have 100 left over to get some more goodies with!

cheap and corsa can never be associated in a sentance, unless you are saying they are NOT cheap.

I have corsa, only paid $350 used. They are great with no drone, but to be honest I would not pay what they ask for them new.

See if you can find a set used, otherwise, in m opinio forget it....way to expensive.

They've gone up in price recently, you aren't going to find them for much less than $680ish now. Last May they were $575 so I'd either wait it out or suck it up. No promises waiting it out will have any good effect though.

I might actually be selling my Corsas. They have absolutely no drone and my wife wants some drone! She wantsthe car tobe louder while crusing; I could go either way. The Corsas do scream at WOT though. I'll keep you posted within the next few weeks if I decide to sell.

I just ordered Borla stingers! From what I could find in the way of videos, they appear to be about as loud as my Corsas at WOT, but with some drone at the lower RPMs (never heard Borla in person though). I'm hoping there won't be too much drone!

Best price I could find for the Borlas was $535 shipped. I didn't go with the FRPP stingers (less expensive than Borla) because I wanted the bigger tips that Borla uses (4" vs 3.5"). I didn't want to compromise the look becausemy Corsas have really nice 4" tips. If I like the Borlas and sell the Corsas, I would hope to get that same amount so I could break even (Corsas are more expensive as you know). Don't know, I'll see and keep you guys posted on the comparison. They are due end of this week or early next week.
