I just read up on another forum that the plaque on the exhaust with the brand "Eisenmann" is different. Notice the sketching and font. The real one is engraved while the replica is lasered

Heres the pictures:

I wonder if the Eisenhaus Meisterschaft is gonna be dirt cheap now, because I'd pick one up haha. Still waiting on my Magnaflow system from Anthony.

Rumor has it that Eisenhaus hyped up the NEEZ wheels. Marketing at it's finest. Some are of the opinion that BBS are better quality in general. More $$$$ doesn't always = better quality.

i just checked mine right now and am somewhat pleased. the plaque underneath is engraved, says "Made in Germany", and does not contain a really long serial number in a different font. it kind of crossed my mind though about getting some money back...

and thanks again john for that heads up yesterday.
