I will be getting the MPE for the M2...maybe even an Akra down the line if I didn't go M Performance.

From all the videos I have seen (heard), the difference between the stock and M performance exhaust is pretty distinct. The stock sounds great on the M2; as BMW learned a lesson from the F80/82 mishap. But man... I am really liking the M Perf sound, at least from videos!

Ideally I want:
-LBB M2, exec, manual (I am having some DCT thoughts since I have driven stick my entire life..lol)
-MPE
-M Perf coilovers (price a deterrent here)
-Black kidney grills, side gills, CF spoiler

That's the M2 build I drool over everyday... Rear diffuser would be nice, but then I am going above my original costs..
The issue of federal tax credits running out by the time the Model 3 is on sale is interesting to me.
