Australia we don't have the same benefit of sticking with Dinan for warranty purposes. I imagine if we did, and I don't see why not, it would be a very popular choice.
I'll also be going with the gloss exterior for grills and gills as I did on my first X5M. Can't beat the carbon interior trim pieces either for the shifter and center console.

FI is a brand i'm definitely keen to explore. Watching video's online, they sound incredible, while still offering a valved system. The Eisenmann Race seems to sounds the best of all X5M exhaust options, but doesn't give you the option of closing off the valves (the Eisenmann Sport sounds like stock). Akra while sounding incredible, supposedly isn't very loud.
Keen to hear everyone's thoughts, particular on exhausts and suspension.
