is amg exhaust even loud?

i'm thinking about purchasing an amg exhaust for my c320. from what i've heard on c32's it seems pretty quiet. does anyone want to confirm that for me, or is there way i can get more noise out of a amg exhaust? would i have to cut my bumper on a c320 for the c32 amg muffler to fit?

It sounds pretty good, but is much better from outside the car. When you accelerate mildy people think you are pushing it.

Of course the entire C32 exhaust system is different, so I don't know how similar the sound will be.

yeah, what Justin said. inside and outside of the car is totally different. You almost can't hear the exaust note at idle, but once you step on it, it is loud (well, not ricer loud).

The C32 AMG doesn't really have a loud sound according to the C32 Life Video. Slightly mechanical sound......
