Also the cracking problems the M performance exhausts have had through both E9x and F8x generations are a worry. Maybe they got it right this time? who knows, nobody has had the system long enough. It's definitely the best looking system that's for sure. But them cheapening out on no valves seems like a weird decision to me, even the F8x has valves and its 2k cheaper for basically the same system, just slightly different dimensions.
This is news to me, it’s listed as titanium exhaust, and the cost on sticker was $7,330.
