It's quite subjective; some people aren't happy until they are running w/o a muffler so they can "hear the car"
IMHO, the engine sound is still reasonably perceptible in the car; as long as I'm not blasting the speakers. I was actually surprised I could hear it quite clearly; though with the stock intakes turbo sound is nearly non-existent. Listening to the engine is pretty important to the manual driving experience for me.
With the windows up you admittedly don't get much exhaust sound at all, even in sport.
Sport mode is still quite loud IMHO when you crack the windows
