SOLD: Alta 3" Downpipe back exhaust

Category: Exterior
Price: $700
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits (you may select multiples): R56, R57, R58, R59
Location (Region): NorthEast
Item Condition: Used

Finally selling my used Alta Down pipe back exhaust. 3" from the down pipe back and connects to the stock down pipe at the fitment and immediately flairs to 3". I just removed it last week and it still sounds amazing, but the family doesn't agree. If you like throaty and you like those JCW pops, you can almost feel them in your seat when you let off the throttle after a good acceleration run. No leaks, great condition. Only damage is from the previous owner lowering the car too much and it scraping the flex joint, but like I said, no leaks at all and doesn't hurt anything performance or fitment wise. I switched to a fJCW with a mid straight pipe and I can feel the loss of throttle response already. I didn't believe the hype when I read about this discontinued exhaust, but I'm afraid it's just not hype. The 3" does, in fact, make a difference. I'll miss it, but happy wife, happy life right?

Located in Central CT and I'm willing to travel. It does fit in the back of the R56 with the seats down so no worries there. I would think that shipping would be terribly expensive, but if you're interested in figuring that out on your end I'm willing to listen.

Thanks for reading and if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

Thank you for the offer, but I'm afraid not. I may have been a few weeks back, but I went down this road already of getting a fJCW and custom exhaust work.

Can you check UPS shipping to Canada for me? you might be surprised, I just shipped 4 wheels and tires from Vancouver B.C. to Seattle Washington for 270.00 Canadian, they were 45lbs each. If we can work out shipping I'm interested. I'm in Richmond B.C. V7E-6J3 Canada Thanks Brian

I looked into it and it’s over $200 USD. I don’t think it’s the weight, I think it’s the size of the box. It won’t even fit in the huge box I got from ECS tuning with my fJCW exhaust so I would also have to procure a huge box to ship it in which I’m sure isn’t cheap. If YOU can find a solution and want it that bad I’m all ears, but I’m a bit drained from people asking me to investigate shipping and then not being willing to purchase.

Like I said, I’m willing to drive and meet most people half way so if there’s even someone in Montreal who can skirt the border right now I’ll meet you in VT.

Thanks

I’m afraid it won’t fit a third generation 2017 F57, but would fit a Second generation R57 up to 2015.

sorry about that I would have absolutely made the drive.
