Ordered new exhaust last night Z4M Coupe

I decided to go full out and ordered:

Supersprint (non-powerloop) cans
Supersprint X-Pipe

I heard supersprint on several different cars at my BMW dealership and really like their house sound. I really like the sound clip of this setup on youtube but expect it will sound throatier, deeper like the the other cars I heard live vs. soundclip.

Also, I figure that this brand has enough equity that if I don't like it on my car I should be able to sell it fairly easily.

Good choice. I'm about to get an exhuast too, but it's difficult to decide. I'm looking for something loud, and the SS + X-pipe one of the favorites right now..

Who did you order from? I am really close to pulling the trigger on the SS powerloop cans. I had the sport SS exhaust on my E36 ///M3 but now the new "sport" is what the race used to be. I would order the non-powerloop system if I knew it wouldn't be too loud... still like to be able to listen to music in my car when I go out of town(@ freeway speeds).

For the last two exhausts on other performance cars, I erred on the safe side with my exhaust choice getting a very mild mannered setup but regretted it. I decided to go with a louder setup this time and try it out to see if I can live with it...if not, I can switch to a milder can like the Labree that is coming out but at least I will know for myself. I will be sure to post what I think once I get it installed and will be very candid.

So I just confirmed order status and it is being shipped directly from Italy to my doorstep...I guess that means 2-3 week delivery time. Now for the hard part- the wait

Vendor corrected my issue and made the transaction right. I should have the exhaust in my hands and installed by mid/late June. Yeah!
