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.

Ah well, sorry to hear that. Appreciate the review. Was thinking about that myself. Ended up going with a catted downpipe two weeks ago. A bit louder and bit deeper tone ( I think)....I dig it. May cut out front muffler and straight pipe it just to see how it sounds.
