I don't like the tone though, it's got the dreaded weed whacker tone. It just doesn't suit the X5 to me. I was hoping for something tonally like the m40i which sounds great. I'm going back to the stock exhaust...bummer.
From your vid, I think I know what you mean about the weed whacker sound. Cold start sounds good tho.
