I LOVE THIS CAR!!!
(WAAAAAYYYYY better than my previous MB E350, but quite a bit more expensive :( )
I'm actually quite nervous as to what my wife is going to say. You see, I should preface by saying that the first thing my wife told me when I got the M was, "NO EXHAUST!". She hated the Magnaflow on the 530. It left a bad taste in her mouth about aftermarket exhausts. Funny part is, she still has NOT realized I put the Supersprint exhaust in. LOL!
I swear! Not only that, but I powdercoated the SS exhaust a gloss black and she still HASN'T noticed. She mentioned once, that it sounded louder at idle, but I blamed it on the weather and the cold start. She bought it. Hahahahaha!
With this new set-up though, it's going to be a lot different. There is no doubt she will know immediately. We shall see. I'm hoping with her new X5, she won't care what I do to the M. Plus, the M will sit in my other garage for most of the week and only be pulled out on weekends. What I'm really hoping though, is that she appreciates the new sound this set-up is going to make. We will find out...

Dude I did the same with my 5er except with the tune not the exhaust. My parents (the ones who make the car payments
) were against any tunes because of warranty issues and what not, but I went ahead and got a juicebox last week and installed it at a friends place. After the next few days, the car felt scary fast...like NIGHT/DAY difference. Then a couple days later my mom was driving the car and I was sitting in the passenger and I was like, mom give it some gas, after the service and new oil and everything, the car seems faster. So she pushed the pedal a bit further down and we both got a nice kick in our asses from the torque, and my mom was like WOW...yeah it DEFINITELY has more kick!!! And all I could say was, "yeah, I wonder what they did, oh well"....but I knew.....I knew
