Exclamation Where can I buy Corsa exhaust?

I've look around and could find anywhere I could buy the Corsa exhaust. I can't buy from Corsa official site and the dealer search sucks.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Very disappointing that it's an axel back system for that price. I've had 2 Corsa systems before, but will probably do cp-e or Riss.

FYI I heard the CPE at a meet last week and me and a few others agree the sound was not good and fit and finish was poor

Yeah, clarify. I've heard nothing but great reviews on fitment, quality, and sound on CP-e. Did you mean corsa? The BMW performance, and CP-e are the only parts that seem to have perfect fitment.

Thanks!

So I guess you're all in favor of the CP-E? I'm mostly looking for the axelback only and I fell 1k for this was pretty expansive....

Most Axlebacks are about a $1k.... give or take $100. Anything more than that better have some special abilities.

I have the first Corsa system produced and could not be happier with it. The system is very quiet when you want it to be but when you put your foot down it really barks. FYI Corsa also sells factory direct.

I just ordered the CP-e, you guys convinced me! I think they sound the best anyway.

Thanks for all the advice!

Really?

The more sound clips I hear of the Corsa, the more I like it. Also, I think the fit and finish looks like it's one of the better exhausts for the 1er. I think the tips look great.

1k for a muffler is hard to smallow, given it doesn't even have a cat delete option. Like the sound, price is off IMO.

Granted it is $1400 for an axleback, but to me it sounds and looks great.

I'm sorry, but IMO, this is one of the best looking exhausts for the 1er.

That's your car? Nice. I'm loving the looks of the exhaust. Can you post some more pics from different angles?

Where can I find more sound clips tho?

Sorry but the car is put away for the long winter's night and won't be out till late March at the earliest. I can tell you that I absolutely love the sound and it's worth every penny when you have the window's down and put your foot in it.
