Welcome! For the exhaust, I recommend looking into an Eisenmann Race or Sport System. The Sport will give your car a deeper growl but maintain the stock in cabin decibel level for optimal comfort and daily use.

Here is a video of the race to give you an idea of the aggressiveness:

+1 on the Eisenmann Race exhaust.

Keep in mind that this video:
"BMW E60 545i with 1/2 M5 Eisenmann Race exhaust and no resonators."

Frank,

Good looking out. The Race exhaust will be aggressive but that is a bit of an exaggeration with the straight pipes.

So what does the Eisenmann Race exhaust cost? When you say exhaust are we talking about a catback?
