Just this morning I've had the M Sport spoiler fitted, and a Remus exhaust at the same time.
I have to say I love the Remus noise. not intrusive, but makes a deep V8 noise!
Dare I say, sounds a bit "AMG" now .. which is no bad thing I don't think as I've always liked the AMG tone!



/couple of pics ... via mobile phone thouth!!!

no probs at all. haven't noticed any diff in consumption.
definitely feels like the torque is delivered lower down the band.. don't have the need to rev so hard anymore.
very happy.

Nice!

And sounding "AMG" isn't a bad thing--my E55 had a wonderful exhaust note!
