Meisterschaft exhaust 1 month + backorder?
I placed an order for a new Meisterschaft exhaust on cyber Monday Nov 30th, but the retailer is saying I should not expect it any time before?
A month plus seems like an awfully long time for a fairly common exhaust. Am I wrong here? |

That company GT-haus has a long record of delays, and fraud. Good luck, I only buy those types of products off the shelf with no long wait. I've learned over time and time again of getting the shaft.

@murph914 you may want to search around. Especially on the F15 X5. A few customers, even mine got bad experience on waiting. Promised from a few weeks into a few months.
Some have a good luck, most don't.

can you link a couple of threads for me? I searched around, but couldn't find anyone that actually had experience first hand.

Uh oh. Thanks guys for the info.
I was told I should have it by the end of the month and at worst early January. I am going to tell the vendor that if it isn't shipped by January 1 I will cancel. I got burned once from Stebro, and it left a pretty sour taste in my mouth. Ironically it was Meisterschaft that I went with for my e60 550i and was really impressed with the quality of the welds and packaging. Although looking back it was clearly for a 545i which I allowed because nobody really made anything for the 550i at the time. I guess I would consider the AKropovich, but they don't even make them for the 650i. Sounds like chances are pretty good I won't be seeing the Meisterschaft which means I'm back into the forums and youtube to pick another. What a pia. |

Another option, and the one that i always take on my cars (and the one that i did o my f13) is having it done by a reputable shop. Ask around for muffler shops that can do custom work, or have worked on high end cars or race cars. Usually shops that do fabrication like rollcages can make a much better exhaust for less money. If you know what you want, and find a good fabricator that can make stuff how you want, you'll never buy another exhaust in your life. As for the gthaus thing.....may the odds be ever in your favor...

Meisterschaft sounds good but their wait times seriously suck. I've read MANY horror stories on here.
OP, have you heard of Frequency Intelligent? I would look into that as a good option. Have heard them on 650s and M6s. Amazing sound and build quality.

So it has been 4 weeks. My latest update is they should be receiving it any day to IL. After they receive it they have to powder coat the tips then ship it to me. I can't see that taking anything less than another couple weeks which will be six weeks total.
Pretty frustrating. |

Excuse the sale and muck. Just excited to share some photos of the car with the exhaust installed. Had to get the car there to get the work done. They should be working on clear bra over the nose, rockers, trunk now along with a good washing. Once I get the car back I will take some more photos and videos and put them up for you.

Wow, Awesome congrats!. How much louder than the M Sport? Is this wait time standard at all Vendors? That's a pretty long wait for an exhaust, but does look worth the wait!!!
