Well as you should know, a sound clip on the interwebs does not do justice most of the time to the actual sound in person. You already mentioned you get those for your bikes, so you know what you are getting as far as the quality, fitment, sound and performance. Yes it sounds great and gives the car a deeper tone. Combine that with a tune and the exhaust note will be even better.

Sound of Akrapovic is better than the stock exhaust ???
If i install the Akrapovic slip-on and delete the second cats in OEM exhaust i get the same system as the Evolution from Akrapovic but not titanium, right?

Essentially yes, but still the Akra is larger diameter i think?
Anyhow, my friend here had an Akra on his C63 before he sold it, and it sounds insane. Nice and deep low sound, while still maintaining the AMG bark.
Go for it!

essentially yes, you can delete the secondary cats in multiple ways, h-pipe, x-pipe, but if the $$ isn't an issue, if I were you I would do the full akrapovic exhaust.

The ONLY advantage to the akra system is weight savings. Unless you're trying to make your car quieter and spend $5k to do that.
Not worth it. Want better sound? Secondary cat / resonator delete.

I have long tube headers, no cats and an Akrapovic slip-on. I am very happy with the sound - not too loud, but the deep authoritative AMG rumble that I had lost due to the header install is now back.
I love it!

the akra exhaust gives the car a unique sound. Id say its comparable to stock volume at low throttle and normal driving. Get on it and it's way louder but not jail time loud. Now if you delete the cats or run long tubes with stock mufflers the 63 sounds horribly loud all the time, jail time loud under full throttle. It will also sounds horribly raspy and make loud pops which to me is awful and ruins an 80k$ luxury car.
