Beautiful. Generally not a big fan of louder exhausts but this one is just perfect.

It's not broken in yet and I hated to do it, but the forum wanted it so here it is.

Bamboo anthracite and manual short shifter (same knob as SMG shifter). Note: wood does not have as pronounced of a brown tone in real life, it looks more dark, close to colorless...flash brought out the highlights.

Thank you for the great post. In person the exhaust has a deeper, slightly more throaty sound. It sounds even better in person.

Thanks for that, I like the sound. It's just as BMW stated, throatier but well measured.

Any chance we can get an interior clip of the sound? Curious what it sounds like from the inside.
