Either the spotter is retarded or something, because M3s do not emit the same sounds as a 320i, and I'm sure Akra ain't much louder than stock.

Not to mention, my previous Z4M with ACS exhaust was actually louder and it never caused an issue.
Is this a VIC thing? What a PITA, akra is pretty tame too, but prob just over the limit at WOT. Without being a smart ass, can you write to them and contest it based on an incorrect report?

A heap of cars would be over the legal limit straight off the showroom floor....
