Here it is gents:

Got the Brabus exhaust and diffuser installed on my 2015 C300 Sport 4Matic. Was about 5,500 for the parts, another 1500 for labor

Not loud at all....adds about 10 HP. Can def tell at lower speeds, gets rid of some of the turbo lag.

Yeah, I'll take one in the next couple of days. It's really not noticeable.

Fantastic to see the mods coming through.

Damned expensive, but very nice indeed - has to be, what, 10% of vehicle worth? I'm guessing costs will come down, over time.

241 HP for the 2015 C300.

I agree though, $7,000 for only 10 HP is WAY too much...even for just bling.

Looks great but such a waste of money. Could just trade your car in for a C450 and take the $7000 hit.

Looks great but way too expensive for just 10HP and "It's really not noticeable." sound.

It's his money to "waste", you guys aren't paying for it so what is the relevance of how much he spent? If you want to say it is "too much" or "expensive" that's fine but to call it a "waste" is nobody's business but his. I don't think he refinanced his mortgage to pay for it...

That's understandable; however, $7000 is a difference between c300 and c400. If I had that disposable cash when buying the c300, I would rather had spent that towards the purchase of a c400.


If the OP is just looking for power since he has mentioned the "10HP" gain, then he could just get the BMS Tune for $300 which provides a better bang for buck and 0-60 times of 5.0 secs and 1/4th of 13.5.


Just my $.02.... The exhaust does look really good.

Because she's thinking...

"He's taking pictures of that damn car again?...I wish he paid as much attention to me!"

Quite agree - at the end of the day, the OP has put up pictures so we can see what the mods look like. Fact is, they look look great - whether I would choose to spend that much is a different point, you could say the same about paying the extra for MB options and any other after-market you could care to mention.

My point is that this is what seanvree chooses to spend his "hard earned" on and I appreciate him taking the time to share it with the rest of us.

Sorry, I should have said that I wouldn't waste $7K on my 300. Feel better now!!

OP opened himself up for that...he could/should have just posted the mods without mentioning what it cost him...

Knowing the cost is very helpful because it helps me decide if I would do it or not.

I agree...however my post was in response to the OP getting bashed on just how much he spent and how it could have been avoided...PM could be used for those who wanted to know how much he spent.

Didn't know this was a financial advice service. . .I obviously know how much it was, and I know it was a lot. It was a combination of getting one of the first Brabus exhausts that were available. So, I acknowledge it was a lot, I knew it was, and that's why I added the price AFTER I posted the OP.

So, back to ****ing cars. . . .yeah, it was worth it.

Thanks for your horrible input guys.
