Dual Exhaust
So, I got the E500 4Matic.
It took over 3 months to get the packages that I semi-wanted, but still missing the appearance package.
I am dying
for dual exhaust.
Any suggestions?

I picked up my E500 without the appearance package for the same reason. I had to add bixenon headlights, and I got the LED lights from the dealer and installed them myself which was fairly easy except the air suspension tank was a bit in the way on the passenger side of the trunk. If you can afford it just let the dealer install them to save you the time.
Also the AMG package isn't available with 4Matic since it uses staggered wheels, so I bought I set of non-staggered 5 spoke AMG "style III" wheels and mounted them to the stock tires, and put snows on the stock wheels.
And finally... I added the AMG exhaust system which was fairly expensive but much nicer appearance than the bolt-on tips. No difference in sound or performance, unless you want the quad-tip E55 exhaust.

Thanks.
BTW, I still managed to pull off the Xenon package, go figure.

Dual exhaust
When i brought my 05 e500amtic i was considering the same thing... i ended up buying the brabus quad exhaust, which fits nicely with stock rear bumpers... u can get a set brand new at around 2000... if you want to save money you can consider the tips, good ones will cost you around 300.. the amg quad looks nicer (its oval) but needs rear amg bumpers... i looked into it, getting the bumper set and exhaust will cost 5000... also the brabus sport exhaust gives a nice deep roaring sound when accelerating... highly recommend it~
