Borla Exhaust for E53 X5
Hey guys. Well after a good amount of requests @ Bimmerfest this past weekend in Santa Barbara, CA, a little birdie told me that Borla might be looking to produce a cat-back system for the E53 X5.

Now I've got a few questions for you guys.

Would you guys buy it?

If so, how much would you guys be willing to pay for one?

Any additional comments would be appreciated as well.

If it's cheaper and sounds close or better compared to the SS exhaust with quality then why not...

borla's are real nice, i would get one if it's less expensive than an eisenmann race (see link, courtesy of LeMansX5) and they use the same quality materials and offer the same warranty... group buy possibility??

The Borla for the Cherokee SRT-8 is $1,300 and $1,500 for the Range Rover. I guess it would be in that range. If they do make it I would hope they would offer the 4.6 / 4.8 oval tips.

I have a Borla on my Vette and love it;
it was $700 though, not $1300-$1500.
I realize there is more length and "plumbing"
involved, but, Whew...

I also had it on my 350z. I loved the sound.
