I just cant understand the cost of this thing and the burnt tip look may be for some but I think it looks like ass.

If you are going to spend the big bucks why not go with one of the premium German tuners?

So clueless. Titanium is more expensive than steel, that's one reason why it costs more. Secondly it's hand made. Third, since when are people only allowed to buy German parts for a German car?

I'd take this axleback over most of those "premium German tuners".

So dongless.

If you see the value in a hand made titanium exhaust on your car go to town. No where did I say people are only allowed anything I was stating that there may be better options.

You didn't just say that - you said specifically German and American tuners were better options than the Japanese. That's going to push buttons.

Looks amazing... but to me that would be a complete *waste* of money. If you can spend that much for muffler, why not just spring for a M3 from the get go?

zbladejr · 04-08-2009, 08:44 PM

I like it! Well played sir.

To the haters I say - think of the last time you spent a $200 for a dinner.....multiply it a few times.....everyone does it - and yet we seem to justify that as worth it.

It's all relative.

My limit will be about $1000 (CP-E me thinks).....but that's 'cause I can't afford $2,000.

M3 vs 135i is a topic by itself - perhaps the man prefers a twin-turbo six, in a smaller package.....that goes just as fast with a few mods.

lol please tell me where you can buy a M3 for $43k

I wouldve bought Dixis exhaust even if I got a M3.

No where in my post does it say that.

To clarify for you, my point is if you are going to spend big bucks why would you opt for a Japanese tuner over a German one who are equal in price buy have much more experience with German vehicles, warranties, etc? Personal taste aside, I think it is a legitimate question.

blklacker · 04-08-2009, 10:31 PM

I'm digging it but not digging the price

1013mm · 04-09-2009, 12:20 AM

jesus thats nice. i would buy it if the sound matches its looks!!!

radiantm3 · 04-09-2009, 12:49 AM

Beautiful exhaust. I love the look of Titanium exhausts. For what it's worth, the Dinan exhausts are hand-made as well.

wmj73 · 04-09-2009, 12:58 AM

Congrats on the exhaust mate, looks the money

Thanks it does

PrimoM3 · 04-09-2009, 01:35 PM

Looks great, best by far... Quality is top notch. Pending it sounds better than stock and you can afford it, I say why not?

I also love the look and sound that only a Ti exhaust can produce.

andrew@southernBM · 04-11-2009, 06:05 AM

Well Done, it looks fantastic and even better you are happy with YOUR mod to YOUR car.

matt · 04-11-2009, 08:20 AM

I HATE YOU! I would hate you more if you got the other can...

Nice, just keep an eye on the mounting locations. Apparently their welds really really suck A-hole.

Sounds INCREDIBLE!
