Default Aero Exhaust?

This seems too good to be true:

Anyone have any ideas? $199 each muffler for the SLK350. You've gotta be kidding me...but hey if it works, it works.

Dont do it, I am not liking their mufflers compared to other German Tuners, It seems to be mufflers that are small and somewhat restrictive.

Probably could cause the car to drone like the Japanese cars with Welded mufflers I see daily.

It's probably a generic exhaust...cherry bomb/glasspack style. try it and let us know how it works!

I am not putting that thing in my car. I don't want my exhaust to sound like rice...ironically...

Haha I love the oval shape of the tips. I'm talking about the sound. If I were to change anything, it would be the piping before the tips, but I'd have to make sure that it didn't ruin the sound. I don't want my car straight-piped to sound like a V6 Rustang.
