i don't think you've ever heard the growl of an E92 M3 when pushed hard in second gear or the beautiful sound of the E36 M3.
Even an E30 325i doesn't sound anything as what you described. C'mon now You must think you're talking to your colleagues at work who know nothing about cars. You're the only person i've come across who thinks Porsches (German sound) sound awful.
Why do you think guys like Seinfeld like Porsches so much? the sound is one of the main reasons.

Kreissieg + X-pipe is the way to go

Long dead thread but, having just found it, think it's a good discussion. The following combo in the YouTube video is a UUC Corsa exhaust + ESS X-Pipe. The resulting sound is nothing short of Italian exotic IMO. Skip to the 2:50 mark for it to really open up. Cheers.

What do you guys think will work best for the sound I am trying to achieve. Is their something better that would work better? Thanks!

Ill miss my GT-S... but looking foward to a fast vert! I did the same color combo.. Alpine over Fox red extended.
Oh crap I was looking for that combo I'm looking to purchase the Maserati MC Stradale with the same combo color. My M3 is white and red on the inside and I call her R3dvelvetM3
