We offer Borla products. We sold a couple and customers were very satisfied but from what you said above, i suggest you get Remus exhaust for a great balance between sound and daily driver.
Since you drive clients, Active Autowerke might be the best option for you. It is not that much louder than stock when driving around town, but once you go WOT it sounds amazing.

Not trying to hijack or anything....since you sell Borla, why are you not offering that to the OP as a top option? Too loud? Quality? Price?

I run the atak on a 335 rwd. I love the exhaust. Not too loud when the windows are rolled up and very minimal drone in my opinion. Very loud when at WOT and has an awesome crackle/burble on deceleration. You would not be disappointed in the atak.

I just had the atak installed on my 335i last night and it's not as loud as i thought it would be.specially from the cabin.... maybe i just need to give it some time?
but if you listen to it from outside, it's definitely louder than stock though...
when you rev while parked, in sports mode, you could hear all the burbles, but won't hear as much while driving from the cabin. I think it's just the way this car was designed...very quite inside..
also, i'm just running stock dp's.
the cold start is lot louder, but not so loud that it's embarrassing as some have mentioned. i guess it depend on the individual.

but this may all change with some miles added to the exhaust.

Sounds fantastic! Once warmed up, it quiets down to a perfect level and really sings when you get on it. Drone is very minimal....never a bother or annoyance. Trust me....if my wife is fine with it, it must not drone much. Maybe a slight touch of drone in lower rpms when in ECO PROmode or something.

Added a few hp too....full catback.
