Very loud 1M

Very loud AW 1M Coupe with aftermarket exhaust (I think it's Akrapovic but I'm not sure), sitting on black rims (and red callipers). Accelerations and some very loud revs!

At around 0:18ish, you can see the quad tips are colored something like red, purple, or orange. I would say its either the Raze exhaust or its Akra with colored tip edges.

Is the driver 16? Why would you rev your engine like that in the middle of city traffic among pedestrians?

Dude seems to be kind of an asshat.

It's often hardly tell with video, but it doesn't seem like Akra I have, whilst the other two videos had that distinctive Akra sound.

True, it's very hard to tell on the video. But IRL it was really loud (almost deaphening sound).

You must know that my camera hasn't the best mic and that my brother was filming it from my car (BMW 320Cd) a few meters/feet away.

I'm not sure which exhaust it is, and since BMW's mostly have Akra's in Belgium, I guessed it would be Akrapovic. But it indeed doesn't really sound like it...

Paying more atention to the parked Maserati and the rest of the scenery than the (guy in the) 1M , I thought: I know that place. It's Knokke-Heist!


And I was right:

(With the sound off the movie is very peaceful LOL)

Edit, how about this one?

Einser M, your opponent awaits you near the Belgian coast

Mystery resolved: this Belgian AW 1M sports the Akra axle back exhaust with added red (or Hello Kitty pink? ) paint on the outer CF tips:

Probably got inspired by the Belgian BSM with added green paint on the outer Akra CF tips and outer wheel rings.

Personally not favoring the idea, because that part gets black in no time, so can imagine that one's got to regularly repaint it.

Thanks a lot for that clarification I think those green details look really good, but that's just my personal opinion

Big difference in sound without the midpipes, possibly dps, and with the valve close.
