Up front you can easily carry on a conversation but it's loud nonetheless. Our kids, however, had a tough time hearing their portable DVD players. You might go test drive a new or used H2 with a Corsa. Or, there may be a forum member in your area with a cat-back that you can test drive.
Here's my two cents, if your wife already has reservations, just get a cool exhaust tip or even dual exhausts without changing the muffler. You'll have the look without the annoyance. Also, a tip cost only $40.00 and a dual pipe may set you back $150.00 with tips. Come to think of it, I may do the same as well.
