Your car is also an E46 M3, not an E46 M3 wannabe.


Sorry Dad, couldn't resist.

Great property. Even had a good view of the incoming and outgoing planes from the roof

There's something you don't want to hear mentioned when pondering places to sleep for the night... clapped out.... *shudders*

Ill try and find some photos of the initial state. That's the only way to describe it. Dude who owned it used to contract with pimps and shit.

'Twas absolute shitshow. Literally shit on the bathroom walls

Not out too long, would never buy an aftermarket exhaust from BMW is the reason i'm out of the loop on the MPE. But apparently am in the loop on Major Penis Enlargements....

So the aftermarket exhaust costs have gotten high enough for BMW to participate?! Yikes. That makes one wonder.

Well, it's a major selling point for the M2, in particular. Many folks seem to be optioning performance parts for their cars, on this car.

Last E46 M3, i pulled the CSL boot (authentic), Ground Control Coil overs, 3 section exhaust, cold air intake, CLS rep wheels and a few other cosmetic items off and sold them. By buying some of that stuff second hand, taking good care of it and cleaning everything up well before selling, i actually made $1700 on the parts i sold.

Results may vary.

I get it, i'm just saying that BMW wouldn't enter that market unless there was a boat load of cash to be made from those performance parts. That means the average aftermarket exhaust prices have gotten high enough for BMW to see it being worth their while.

It's an easy solution for those enthusiasts who don't want to throw down 80 hours of research on the best exhaust for the dollar as well as those enthusiasts who don't want to just blindly trust their internet forum buddies' research. But BMW isn't out to do anyone any favors, they're here to make money and aftermarket exhausts have gotten so ridiculously expensive, they see opportunity to make more money.

I think they are basically remarketing an Akrapovic setup. Not sure if it is the same as one you can get with Akrapovic branding or not, but this one worked out well for me. Had the car in anyway, so saved on some labor and hit a "promotion".

You're absolutely right! I couldn't agree more. The quality seems relatively high, but of course there are companies like Akra, RPI, and Innotech who make absolutely beautiful pieces of art, which are similarly priced (or cheaper...not Innotech though ).

I just threw everything out and had something made from scratch, but I can appreciate the quality of a great manufacturer in the aftermarket.

I don't doubt that it'll sound good or that it's a quality performance part.

I'm just bitching about the over all excessive price of aftermarket exhaust systems. The proof of excessive pricing is that BMW is gaining some of that market share.

I still love you, even though you're not getting the Major Penis Enlargement.
