Default Sounds similar to straight pipe after strange noise?

Hey guys, I was recently driving and heard what sounded like when you drop change, underneath my 2001 GT. followed by the exhaust sounding now like a mixture between straight pipe and the m80's on it already. Any suggestions on what it could be? And if it's harmful to continue driving? Thanks.

It's hard to diagnose sounds over a forum, but I'd peek under the car and look for any damage to the exhaust system. Have a friend block off the tailpipes ( temporarily ) with a rag and hand pressure. Any leaks will be amplified then. Good luck

Agreed with above. Get under the car and look to see if one of the pipes got disconnected somewhere. I had one of the mufflers on my car disconnect from the midpipe once and man was that obnoxious.
