Sounds ridiculous. I'd be embarrassed to drive the thing. Less is more IMHO.

I just switched from an eisenmann race to this cause I wanted something louder. I can honestly say the meistershaft GT sounds far more exotic than the eisenmann did. Eisenmann is throaty. Meistershaft is raspy and ferrari like.

I think it is safe to say I would not be embarrassed driving any m5, regardless of the sound, but I do agree, it is a little much....definitely a weekend car.
