My 1996 Honda Civic has been awesome... two days ago it started making a loud "throaty" noise. Like it was trying to be some race car or something. I haven't noticed any performance difference but I drive it 100 miles per day on the highway and it gets loud!

What could it be? Time for a new muffler?
