You mentioned drone. The short tail has drone or the cat back?
What do you think one can expect as a day to day owner of the short tail compared to the cat back.

The amount drone and rasp is directly related to the exhaust modifications you make. If you go with short tails and do not change your cats and exhaust it will be loud and there will be drone and rasp as you have eliminated your muffler. Your muffler and mid pipe resonators help cancel drone and rasp.
If you go with the true dual exhaust you will get a significant increase in sound over stock as the exhaust allows for better air flow (larger pipes and less restrictions). You should not get any drone or rasp unless you upgrade your cats or air intake. I installed Art pipes to cancel some of the rasp, as they resonated. Also with the dual exhaust you get the benefit of additional horse power and torque.
As for day to day driving if you go with short tails you will get a lot of attention. They are awesome, the thing you have to do is find the RPMs with the least amount of resonance. It is generally the worst some where between 3,000 and 3,500rpms. The dual exhaust is like I stated...loud when you mash it hard and quite other wise. If you have the money get the full exhaust. If you want loud get short tails and the s-line mid pipe!
The are several threads in this section related to AAM exhaust systems and there performance. So do a search, call Khoi or PM me if you can't find what you are looking for. Good luck!
A couple of threads for consideration:

AAM Short tails + test pipe?,
