I liked this exhaust better before I heard the clip
oh well, I wasn't buying it anyway.
Still gotta say it's a piece of art and good for the "man that has everything"

Considering this still leaves the factory primary cats in place, I think they did a good job at creating a unique sound for the C63. I'm sure with LTs, catless midpipes, and the slip-on Akrpovic mufflers, it would probably sound louder and deeper. Our factory mufflers already sounds like an aftermarket exhaust though, so it's funny to see that to achieve that "aftermarket" sound for the C63, they reverted to a more muffled sound. Sure does look nice though.

Peter: what's the difference in terms of performance with the slip ons? would it be huge? also sound wise..

I see a lot of comments avout those tips. Personally, I think it is the coolest part of the exhaust. Not only they are a production marvel but also, all the new AMGs come with similar style tips from the factory. The quad ovals are a classic but the style is on the way out.
Have a look at this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...th-photos.html
The numbers from Akrapovic are:
Evolution: 12hp / 16tq
Slip-On: 5hp / 9tq
In reality you can use a slip-on and gut your secondaries.

A fellow C63 owner installed the Akrapovic exhaust recently. What can I say? The workmanship, finishing and exhaust note are beyond words. There's also a 20kg weight saving over stock. The moment the car was started, I told myself I had to get it. And indeed I placed an order right after a short spin in the car! It'll be my X'mas present.
