Yeah, but I don't need to spend another $200 on this car just to get some more exhaust sound. The Tanabe is expensive enough and does what I want it to. All these aftermarket exhausts are too expensive. I imagined the demand would be low enough for the sedan owners that price would have fallen by now. I can't imagine too many sedan owners are purchasing aftermarket exhausts.

And yes, '07/'08 exhaust fits '09/'10 models.
Backordered? I guess the demand is higher than I thought.

You'll going to enjoy this mod. It made the car a lot more fun to drive.

Tanabe Exhaust are very nice. I had them on my previouse car: Lexus IS350 and the tone and everything on its is great. Sound really sexy unlike other exhaust systems.

++++1 Tanabe for the Win.

Also I installed my lowering spring from Tanabe I thought the ride would be very stiff after installing them, but no They are almost like Stock springs and feels stiff a little not that much though.

I love Tanabe Products to be honest they are pretty good compared to other products.

I also been waiting for the Tanabe exhaust prices to drop, but they haven't.

I Signed up my car as a test model for their products. Got a call, but have yet to get that second call.

I like the look! How did you adjust the hangers? Did you just bend them with pliers? Did you adjust them while installed on the car? Thanks

Pretty easy if you use an extended length socket over the hanger and just apply force to the breaker bar, they bend easily w/ that method.
