Hello,
My 3200 has awful original exhaust boxes which seem to be disintegrating with rust.

New larini and quicksilver are quite expensive and I wonder if anyone here ever compared them to the Fox or Imasaf made in Germany that can share an opinion.

also open to buy Larini or Quicksilver second hand if a member has them for a good price.

I've had Fox on my QP4 3.2 Evo for 7 years now. Quality and fit is good with a nice rumble and very enjoyable V8 sound. I have the rounded rectangular outlets which was the only option. On 3200GT you have the choice of both the rectangular version and original looking twin round outlet.

Euro spares are showing the original silencer boxes ar £499 plus vat if they can get them then l think the original design looks the best and still with a nice burble and they will last for years. If you don’t like the standard then it has to be the Latino as they do sound nice and will always command a good value on the used market if you ever break the car or just change your mind.

I have Quicksilver rear silencers on mine and they drone quite a lot, in urban traffic they're a bit too loud so I wouldn't recommend them. When McGrath looked at the car a few years ago they noted the same and suggested changing back to the OEM rear boxes. I did look into that and rejected the idea because of the cost.

Don't know about the sound but Supersprint offer aftermarket exhaust options for the 3200. Price on demand though so could be pricey.

A good custom exhaust manufacturer could make something up for you and tune the sound to your liking.

The OEM price seems to be around 600 euros per box so that’s also an option.
i agree that the outlet design on the OEM does look nicer.
The craftsmanship on the Fox judging by the pictures seems to be top notch and cost roughly the same as OEM so I’m divided between fox and oem.

If you are worried about droning then the OEM is a safe option if you want more sound then you have a choice but more expensive.

I replaced mine with Imasaf, good quality and very similar to the original, a perfect fit. They are perhaps a little quieter but that’s fine with me no rumble when driving on motorways. Don’t worry they do still roar when when you push the peddle down!
