Had my new Eisenmann Race exhaust installed a few weeks ago.
I've heard that I'm one of the first in the Netherlands with the race version.
I now know why.... This thing is LOUD!
It's not too loud in the car but you can't drive around anymore without being noticed.
The sound is great, almost like a F1 car, but for a daily driver it's a bit too much.
I'm still trying to find out if there's a way to make it a bit less loud, so if any of you guys have ideas then let me know .

I have posted a short video of the car on Youtube

Sounds and looks great! Don't change a thing.

I love an M5 with stock 166s. Best look IMO.

Do you have any closeup shots of the Onyx Blue?
