It is still available off their website for $499 with $65 shipping.

I emailed them and they replied with:

"Unfortunately it is discontinued and we are all out. I am not 100% sure yet whether the intention is to being it back or not yet. Sorry!"

I don't know why its still on the website.

Are there any exhausts that particularly maintain and amplify that "howl" or hollow sound that the Gs and Zs can be recognized by. I'm pretty certain that whenever someone refers to the "exotic" nature of the stock exhaust they are referring to the howl and not the deep and burbling noise that the ricers tend to go for.

Any suggestions ?

If you don't mind a bit of custom work, use the muffler from a G37 or 370Z. The engine acoustics are fairly similar and the exhaust note isn't drastically altered. Ultimately you would sacrifice all out gains in exchange for retained acoustics but the 370Z/G37 muffler does have dual 60mm inlets as opposed to the 350Z/G35 single 60mm. The tip spacing is identical (I measured them) as well as the two upper hanger position being identical (also measured them). The rear lower hanger however is on the opposite side.

will do, but are you referring to V1 or V2, I'm wondering which one has a deeper sound to it, since I'm trying to avoid that and simply maintain the "howl" and maybe a slightly higher pitch. V2 has the helmholtz resonators that branch out btw.

I just got a Fast Intentions Carbon cat-back. Like people have been saying, fairly quiet (in-cabin) at cruise and pure sex on the throttle. However, I must admit, I'm getting a bit of in-cabin drone/hum at low rpms. Mainly when accelerating from a roll or navigating a parking lot, 2100-2400 rpms. The resonance/hum is quite intense. I hope I get used to it. I love everything else about the exhaust. Great guys at Fast Intentions, fast email response, exhaust is made to order. Took me about two months to get mine (charged my card at shipping). Here are the sounds clips that sold me on the exhaust (not my car):
