Default Should I buy this exhaust system?

Hey guys I drive a Nissan 350z 2007 and the exhaust system it has is stock, so I was wondering if I should buy this used "stillen exhaust system" for 550$ with installation? So I looked up this stillen exhaust system and the retail price is around 1400$. I'm here thinking that it's worth it but I don't really know because when I went to go see the exhaust system it looked a bit rusty!
So what do you guys think should I do it? There are picture of it up above!

Looks like it's actually in pretty nice condition. Get yourself some metal polish and those mufflers and tips should shine up well. Whether or not it's worth the money is up to you, but that seems like a pretty fair price for a quality system in used condition.

Its stainless steel it shouldn't have any rust. You just need to clean it up and it will look brand new... I would get it...

Looks like it has some ghetto extension pipes on it for a G35. Hopefully they didnt mess up the tubing with those clamps.

That is messed up!! I went from "OG" to "ghetto"?? Back when I couldn't legally drink, slip joints was all the shizz! Nowadays, you kids got all them fancy dancy V-band clamps and stainless geegaws! Hmmmph.

But yeah, good eye, Mike. Interestingly enough, a guy I sold one of my S-Tunes to was installing on a G. He took it in and had the V-band flanges welded on and it's held together with V-clamps. Very sano install. I can imagine the buyer of this could do the same if the pipes are munged.

Actually my borla is all slip joints also, but it has some better looking clamps.

I'm pretty sure those clamps and pipe length are normal and are there for adjustment. I could be wrong, but my stillen exhaust has the same thing.

This exhaust is not loud at all, in fact its probably just as loud as resonator delete.
Had it on my Z and didn't like it at all
