I'm pretty convinced that the M2 ///M Performance Exhaust will deliver as aural pleasure maker.

Sound is good "stock", but I want something loud!

I think the M2 sounds better (at least what we hear in videos) than the M3/4. However, the M3/4 doesn't sound bad OTHER than on cold start where it sounds horrible. Once warmed up it isn't bad... there are better sounding cars but it isn't bad.

People who own other cars have to find something to bash the M3/4... jealousy

As soon as mine comes in it's off to GTHaus for a Meisterschaft exhaust. I like it loud too but also want the ability to switch the valve over to a quieter mode when I'm entering/leaving my neighborhood.

I disagree. Every German luxury car on the road seems to be white, silver grey and black.

The blue is the only unique color.

You can also toggle the valves of the M2 ///M Performance Exhaust. Its exhaust valves do not automatically open or close at a certain RPM. They are driver-controlled using an included Bluetooth remote (which will likely come in packaging which should fit in the cupholder to act conveniently as a remote holder).

Exactly what I thought. After 4k miles my stock exhaust pretty much sounds like this.

Sounds pretty fun! I liked the sound of the E92 335 and this reminds me of cold starts from the N54 in my garage. Smaller and lighter package here though. Still don't fancy the looks yet but I'm sure they'll grow on me soon enough.

Pretty loud for stock. Also it seems to ride very high. Never noticed this in other pics/videos. And why is the gas cap a circle? Lol just noticed that. Can't wait to try one out for myself

Is it just me, or do I see the ///M badges on the seats like on the M3 seats? Around the 1 minute mark on the video.

I don't have PE on mine, only the stock exhaust with golf tee mod, and it is still damn loud in the morning.

I agree that it will be sehr gut, but not as much as a 1 M with Akra.

WoW, liking white way more than I had thought. I really wanted Mineral Grey over Alpine White due to the fact that my 135i was AW, but now I don't know. UGH decisions!

I think there is something wrong with the view count on Youtube. I have watched this video at least 14k times just today!
