Eisenmann Race in any Finnish cars?

Probably going to order Eisenmann Race for my E61 M5, but haven't heard it in person. Did have Eisenmann Sport in my E93 M3 and Supersprint E90 M3, but both were too quiet. If someone in Finland does have Eisenmann Race installed I would be interested in hearing it in person. The Youtube videos are ok, but probably not what it is in reality. Now don't have to drive long journeys to work like with the M3s, so Race could be ok. The M5 is so well insulated that E Sport isn't probably enough?

Eisenmann Race cannot be fully heard inside M5 cabin either because cabin is so well insulated. You need windows down to really hear the exhaust. Does not matter the exhaust you put on, the cabin with windows up reduces the sound dramatically. Be careful what you wish for with E-race. IT is very LOUD especially cold start and you need to hear it in person before you get it since youtube video only captures little bit of what it sounds like.

Exhaust will make you easily noticed and subtle it is NOT but it sounds very good at WOT. IF you are not looking to fly under the radar, don't mind occasionally cars wanting to race, not worried about gains and want the best in sound then go for it..

Thanks for the answers. This time no need to go under the radar, I wan't to go well above the radar! Even if the neighbours won't understand. The X5 40d is so quiet that it will be used when the family needs to be transported. Probably need to tint the windows also if it's so loud.

Don't understand why the M5 is so quiet oem. If you need to be fast and quiet, could buy F11 550d. Just a waste burning fuel 15 l/100 km if you don't have any sound. I think nice sound is atleast 30-40 % of the enjoyment

Unfortunately I don't have the E Race, but E Sport - with the 2ndary cats and resonator removed. I personally think that it's pretty nice. If you'd like to listen to it I live in Espoo.

I had the Supersprint X-pipe and Kellener "SuperSound" mufflers on my old E39 M5 and had to promise to my wife "never again" a soundtrack like that...:-(
