Thank you!
I got the same M perf parts as you plus the splitter, and it's nice to see that they look fantastic. Great additions to your build. And I added the MPE to my build literally one day before the ship docked and the more I read about it, the happier I become! Those tips man haha.
I need to see the splitter in person first- although boredom may strike and I'll end up ordering that too LOL
Enjoy!

Thank you! I appreciate the words!

Thank you! Trust me, the more Grey I see on the road the more I cringe. I get a TON of compliments. Especially when driving with the front 2 windows down and the interior shows. You would NOT regret it.

I too am trading in my 2018 M3 comp for an ordered 2021 M5C which should be at the dealership shortly and your write-up made me even more excited for my car to arrive.
Any chance of some interior shots with that great looking Tartufo?
Enjoy your new ride!

Congrats! When you're driving home, it's a VERY surreal moment. Enjoy!

I also had an MPE and downpipes on my M3, and that thing just roared. I miss being able to hear the exhaust note as aggressive as that was compared to the M5.
I'm a big OeM+ kinda guy as well, but as stated with the tunes, maybe wheels will give me a fix to my mod bug for awhile too lol

I agree. Honestly, OEM+ is my middle name. So I get it, even with my M4 I didn't do the tune until my final year of ownership.
I'll wait and see how break in goes, and if I'm still not pleased with the sound, I'll explore downpipes. I am SUPER interested in any members with the MPE and either downpipes or removal for first and secondary cat?

You know, I didn't initially want 15%- but when I was shown 15 and then shown the next step up which was like light tinted Oliver Peoples sunglasses, I knew it was clear.

I will be looking into this. I appreciate the lead! Has anyone here used them?

35 looks good too!!
Thanks! My very limited driving time should help decrease this risk!

If you need help talking you off the ledge on trading the M4 for the M5, I'm not your guy. LOL

I REEEAALLLLYYYY hope you're right. Dare I say- I was slightly embarrassed and like "W.T.F" when I ran through my cities one and only tunnel. In fact, an F80 made me look like a B**** with the way his car sounded.

I'll be printing the post on the front page, and framing it in my garage. I've always hoped to have a car worthy of the feature page. I thank all of the Bimmerpost community!

Really? I'm being serious- I've yet to use this function..

I kindly thank you! and I wanted to say THANK YOU to BIMMERPOST members for checking out my post, and for the front page. Been here for a long time, and I've admired a lot of your cars. Blessed to be able to do this - DRIVE SAFE
oh, And some interior shots... I'll make a point of really focusing on the interior and sunlight in my next photos. Garage light and camera flash don't give the best representation of its beauty.
