Sorry for interrupting the quasi-homosexual banter with an automotive related comment but...
Mine was like that when I bought my car also, the "experts" said that happens when one of these if flat-bedded or otherwise transported. Not sure how true that is or if it can happen on a steep driveway. I lived with it until I had the muffler off the car replacing the cat. Then I was able to prop up the muffler, stick a wood "V" block under and hammer it back down using a large diameter punch. It took a lot more force than I would have imagined, don't think a tailpipe expander could do it even if you could get it in there.
p.s. nice car, congrats!
