I got a few questions about the exhaust:

Does this fit on the 2013 IS250 AWD?

If anyone knows, where can I buy it in Canada?

Assuming that it is more efficient than stock, Does it this improve fuel efficiency?

1) Yes

2) Locally? No idea. Use eBay

3) No

I've had the exhaust for 6 months and I would say not annoying at all

Received my m2 exhaust in the mail a couple weeks ago and finally installed it yesterday.

Using wd40 on the stock bolts and rubber hangers made taking the stock exhaust off quick and easy. I went the route of buying new bolts to bolt the stock flange to the aftermarket flange because as many others couldn't, I could not compress the spring bolts ebough to start threading it. Other than that everything was quick and easy. Had to drill one of the bolt holes on the gasket that was sent with the exhaust because it didn't match up perfectly. As others have said my left exhast tip hangs lower than the right, but I will get under the car again in a week or two when I check for exhaust leaks and will tweak the hangers to help with tip positioning.

The sound is exactly what I was looking for, as it's not too loud, but loud enough to notice a difference from stock.

Thanks to all that have participated in this thread, helped me make the right exhaust decision and made the install quick, easy and painless.

Just an FYI, my buddy is selling his M2 catback. It was installed back in January, we pulled it off yesterday. It was on his 08 is250. PM me if anyone is interested. He's looking for $230. He lives in Baltimore. Not in classifieds, he's not an internet forum guy.

I've had this on my car for about a year and a half now. It's actually pretty quiet as far as aftermarket exhaust systems go, I don't really experience any drone either. I think it's actually about the best sounding exhaust for the IS350 IMO. Best bang for the buck for sure.
