Default Exhaust like 435i?

I have a 530i (3.0L I6). Since it has the same size engine and is also inline like the 435i, do you guys think it's possible to get an exhaust mod that would make it sound like the 435i?

IMO, Dinan has one of the best sounding exhaust, their pricey, but sound nice. Not too loud, no drone and a sweet sound outside.

Really? IMO the 435i exhaust sounds like a lawn mower. Dinan and Remus are nice exhaust. For your ride maybe look at rpi or magnaflow since your car is a NA engine.

I believe all the new M cars have "active sound". Some say its not bad others don't like it on principle either way has nothing to do with how the exhaust outside the car sounds.

Isn't going to sound the same but, if you want a better sounding exhaust the Remus is really nice.

Here are a couple of clips I found on youtube, check it out:

Completely different engines. You cant get anything near the sound as the 435i is turbo charged but like the others said a nice exhaust upgrade will help out and give you some rumble.
