I'm currently battling in my mind between keeping my M roadster or selling to get an M5. I got the Z out today (it's off-road for winter) to warm it up etc and thought 'there's no way I can part with this' (although I am going to test drive an M5 soon so we'll see if that swings me the other way).
Whilst in the 'for keeps' mindset, I was thinking of what I want from the car. One of the most important aspects for me is how a car sounds. I don't think the straight 6 can ever compete with a V10, but is certainly a great sounding engine in its own right. The problem is, it's not loud enough. If I keep the car I am considering changing the exhaust. I read some topics on here and elsewhere, done the YouTube thing (AC, eisenmann) and concluded I am a child and thus would want the loudest, most anti-social nasty sounding thing I could get my hands on. I'm not bothered about one that is nice and quiet with the hardtop on as I have a second car for boring, everyday driving (albeit a 120k miles diesel Peugeot).
What do people have on here and what's out there that's any good? I seem to recall there's a decent place in Cardiff that does custom jobs.

Cardiff Charlie-Job done
Charlie-Prospeed Taylor made to your requirements--just be prepared to be stopped if you get him to make it as loud as possible--S152 covers this
