E55 exhaust note

https://vimeo.com/807774631

From day one i wanted my own car to have a deep rumble to it. My first exhaust with midlength headers and x Pipe gave too sharp sound for my taste. Now with 3" exhaust with H-pipe and two 30cm end mufflers the sound starts to be good.
how do you guys like this and how do you prefer your own car?

I had a rattling driver's side primary cat for several months. Last fall, had enough of it. Tried to get a local independent shop to do the work but they couldn't find a number for just the cat. Wanted to get a custom shop to make the whole driver (left for those across the pond) but wanted nearly $2,000 to replace both cats and pipe just on one side.

I bought a wire welder, X-pipe from Ebay, magnaflow primarly cat and misc pipe. Removed secondaries and resonator. Sounds very nice. Kept my foot out of it for a few weeks to let my wife get used to the rumble. Highway it is very quiet.
