I did pull the pin and bought it. It's surprisingly quiet even with the Catless front pipe. Doesn't sound ricey at all, nice deep tone that's not deafening. Only issue I have is the tips are fixed so adjusting them is a chore.

I am real close on pulling the trigger on the Q300 myself. Confusing choices for sure. I had too loud of exhaust on my MINI S, definitely want something that looks great, a better/lower sound, but not loud. The stock look is pretty average IMO. STI will look good for sure, but probably at least 2X the Q300 when it becomes available. My only question is when the STI pieces become available, is it worth an upgrade to STI intake and exhaust? In California, I want a Cal ARB approved intake. So AEM is a consideration now as well.

STi exhaust is already available and yes it costs a little more than $1800 , not including shipping which will be a few hundred. Personally, I don't care for the sound and that price is just for a catback. If you have that kind of money go with Supersprint.

Hey man! I think I found your match!

Check out this exhaust. It is high quality, and an extreme bargain.

If I were you and had your budget, I would get this one from @Memphis in a heartbeat.

Invidia Q300 is perfect for that price range.
