Ok so you got a 2005 c320...and money is not a problem?...well then how come its a 2005 and C class...I would expect it to be at least an AMG with "no money problem"

If money is no problem:

Go quad Eisenmann Race, check out Mugenx's previous set-up before his part out.

Or to fully finish it, get a C55 AMG spare wheel well, then get two Eisenmann's (I don't see the point though, really)

Deepest, and best sounding exhaust for our cars by far.
And it's a simple cat-back weld or clamp on

EDIT:: I miss mine after selling it =O
But I needed money. Personal experience, I would go back if another one comes up for sale in my price range =]

Dude, it all comes down to how much you want to spend!
Obviously your money has a limit since you got a 2005 c320 and not a 2005 C55 ( if thats the year and class you were targetting)

Note to OP: make sure that if you go this route, you're prepared for the sound. It really is a loud exhaust; I've had mine in my car for about 8 years now, and it can get annoying at times.

What tommy says is true.
It has a great first impression, but does drone a little bit on the freeway.

But if you're looking for beast, look no further.
If you get sick of it, and have to let it go quick, I'll pick it up from you.
Hahaha

I know my friend replaced just his filter and he engine only revved when he put pedal to the metal. Might not even need exhaust.

if you just want cheap and loud...then Magnaflow is a choice.

if you want a medium price ranged good product then go with Remus or Supersprint

if you want a loud and pricy exhaust that doesn't really do much to adding performance then there's Eisenmann

keep in mind unless you tune the car along with adding the headers...the exhaust is just for sound.

Carlsson is the only one. if you can't find one just keep it stock and take off the resonator.

To clarify Frank's point, none of the exhausts really does much about adding hp.
