I wish the manufacturers would stop trying to guess what their prospective clients would like. What the hell's wrong in having a standard car on which anyone, wherever they live in the world, can select from the same options list and spec their car exactly the way they want ? And that goes for M-performance bits too. Where is the sense, in today's world which is supposed to be aiming for responsible use of the earth's resources, in forcing purchasers of, for example, an MPE, to have to ditch their original exhaust ? So much better to reduce the MPE exhaust price and allow one to specify it on the new car. That would be one less original exhaust system manufactured and a considerable cost saving to all concerned. The same goes for steering wheels, spoilers, wheels... What a waste.
