Sorry about your luck, but the exhaust system sounds great on my car 
Im going to 76 today to get the CEL checked out, the last two days we got off way too late. But on a lighter note I smoked an M3, a Charger SRT8 and an EVO on the freeway comming back from 29 palms. So for now you can live vicariously through me. 
Ill probably text you later today with the engine code.

I was Driving in Scottsdale AZ today wondering why the AC crapped out in the "bang bus" (yes folks back to the mini van for a few weeks") As I'm fiddling with the AC control along side me rolls a black M3 as it passes me I'm Like "Its you!!!!" It was the local M3 with the plate AMGLOL. And here I am in the beat up minivan with a wide open road next to my nemesis and I can do nothing about it.
I start yelling at myself "Why did I have to do long tube headers!" I tell you It felt like a bad dream. Man I just wanted to smash this M3 into the ground. I've only seen his car in pics online and when I finally see it and it happens to be the perfect situation for a M3 BBQ and I'm in the "Bang Bus"

My wife has a ML500 and went out with the girls on Friday night. Saturday morning rolls arond and I'm getting ready to jump in the C55 to go meet up with a buddy. She stops me and says that she "thinks" the ML was shifting weird, but can't really give more detail than that (with my wife that is typical). So upon better judgement I decide to take her car (just so dang boring to drive and Mistake #1) to see if I feel the "weird shifts". Got about 4 miles into the trip and actuall almost turned around to get my car since the ML was perfectly fine (Mistake #2).
Now fast forward to my ride home a few hours later. I am on a 2 lane road and in front of me is a M3 and a G35 who are playing in traffic a bit. We hit the light and these two guys are playing the rev game (vroom, vroom). Then I see this mustang come flying down the road looking like they were trying to catch up to that pair. So now it is me (in the freaking ML), next to me is a mustang cobra reving and in front a M3 and G35. The light changes and the stang jumps on it like a bat out of hell and the M3/G35 all getting on it as well. The worst part is that it was about 1/4 to my exit and that exist happens to be the last one and that two lane road is in the middle of cow country beyond that so all I hear as I exist are those folks flying down the street and a tear slowly formed on my cheek.
Anyway, add this to the pointless story count. Just wanted to let you know that I'll never jinx myslef by saying "I'm glad I'm always in my C55" again.

Ask Jturkel how bad the bang bus is he's seen it. Its truly a site to see. I need to buy something a bit more respectable for a second car. Even though this minivan was given to me I dont know if I would take it again if it was offered to me for free now.

You know what sucks. Its been a long time since I had to dump money into a car that I didnt want to. The AC crapped out Friday and and the fan relay was fried so $1000 later I now have cold AC again. Its a must out here in AZ.

dear whiney OP, you should consider yourself lucky, perhaps you will have the opportunity to get owned in the future, because, you will indeed get owned by his car. you can find him at pretty much every track event at PIR. the end.
