Why are aftermarket exhausts SO FREAKING EXPENSIVE for these cars? - Page 3

Skyset, I got the Borla Atak and secondary delete midpipe as well. I'm in OntArio too. Yes, it was expensive, but it was worth every penny! Head over to Hottexhaust. They have a warehouse in Vaughan so shipping is free. Shoot them an email and they will send you a coupon code. Best deal anywhere for us Canadians.

It's probably just Borla taking a while to make them.

Doing anything to these cars has reached Harley levels of ridiculousness

You probably also waited about 40 weeks to receive it.

They are expensive, and the stock exhaust is pretty freakin gnarly. For those reasons i doubt i'll invest, unless i need to for power reasons.

You are just impatient. I wouldnt mind waiting a few weeks to get something if it saves me over $500. Whats the rush?

They sell it cheaper to you guys...
I can buy a system in the U.S. Get it shipped back here and still save $$$

Thats the thing. NPP is nice, but I pretty much have to go WOT to hear it loud. Else, its a pretty quiet exhaust (even in track mode)

I was considering this one too but a few people have mentioned drone on the highway around 1800-2200 rpms

What I laugh about your taking a $3500 high performance NPP stock exhaust that was designed to work with that motor after years of research. throwing that system out and replacing it with a $1000 system just for sound???????

I'm honestly not sure, since I have an M6 I haven't really paid close enough attention to that detail.

That's pretty stupid, sorry to hear that.

Maybe drive to Huntsville and knock on their door, and ask pretty please for a direct buy discount

Supply and DEMAND. That old Rule.

If owners would stop buying...prices would go down. I agree....MANY of the prices for accessories ARE silly over priced. Yet folks are BUYING them.
