The 65 motors are very quiet and I am a big mustang guy too. The note you are looking for will be accomplished by just straight piping the mufflers. Sounds crazy but it will not be no where near as loud as if you straight pipe a mustang. You will love it, only other mod I would do is a ECU tune. That should net you about 60rwhp/150rwtq. You could also opt for the tcu tune for quicker crisper shifting. After that get some drag radials, you will need it

The CL55 is a lot louder outside than it is from the inside with the windows up. Much more so than with any car I have ever seen. Somehow it is sedan quiet inside while everyone outside is looking at you. I"m guessing if you want to hear it from the inside, it is going to have to be pretty darned loud.

The M113K motors are way louder than the biturbo 6.0 The turbos act as cats themselves, so I would just cut to the chase and remove the mufflers and add straight pipes

you can get the 65 loud, but it will sound like ****. ive got a few vids somewhere or you can just hear it in person. i'll send you a pm or text on what you should do for a 10 sec recipe
