everything is in place only mid silencer - the chorizo - is gone replaced with this tube

http://www.ebay.de/itm/Mercedes-C43-...item339de70167

there is no drone inside, sound is great when you hit the throttle and gearbox shifts down.
the c43 has a better exhaust setup than w210 e55 which is very quiet compared stock

this tube in the link is german HQ stuff, €325 euros incl. worldwide shipping isn't that much, $$$ dollar currency is very high it will come out cheap for you.
do the math
if you ask seller nicely, he can drop the value on customs form it will be even cheaper for you

he also sells a tube for c36 and w208 clk55 amg

The price is down today to Euro 295.- with VAT http://www.ebay.de/itm/Mercedes-C43-...item339de70167 so if it's for export, the VAT with be removed from the price. I don't recall how much the German VAT is but in any case it will make the price even more interesting.

I had seen a similar option way back, but the the price at the time was around Euro 1K. Needless to say I chose to remove the secondary cats and install a Y pipe insteed. I'm very happy with the result, but Kowalski's option is probably one which looks OE would probably pass the technical inspection here without any doubt

i have included the shipping in price
€295 Y-pipe + €30 shipping= €325 euros

DRB for your car this Y-peip would have been the ideal for your car, sucky Swiss governemnt vehicle inspection will not notice this pipe as it looks more oem

you wanna trade?
my pipe for your pipe?
you never have to switch pipes every 2 years and no more hurting your back!

i think deutsche VAT is 19% iirc?

I may go down that road. Just need to empty the secondary cats and weld them back on. That way the great sound without the secondary cats will be preserved.
