Hi,
Were there any factory  exhaust options for the Edition 30 at all.

Thanks.

Nope, one size fits all.

It’s only been in the last 5 years or so  that manufacturers have started offering noisy, obnoxious exhaust options.

I know, I’m a paradox! I love cars & modifying but I hate fatuous trombone and Darth Vader noises  :grin:

I know the feeling, I went for the prestige BCS cat back system as I didn't want the attention, and Im convinced it got louder after have my stage 1 remap!
although I did laugh today when the old git in his Range Rover wafted his arms at all the black unburn fuel I dumped over him for sitting up my ass!!  :grin:

I’m more like James May than Hammond and Clarkson  :smiley:  Those two like in your face noisy stuff, I like subtle refinement  :happy2:

true, although I did sit in traffic the other day next to a AMG C63S and it looked fantastic and the sound of that V8!! but it would wear thin if it was that loud inside for me.
