My new SO M2C

Hi all,

I purchased a Sunset Orange (6spd) M2C about a month ago. So far I have really enjoyed the car, and it is immeasurably more engaging than my S4.

I have seen several questions arise about the newly released Dinan exhaust for the M2C, so I figured I would chime in since I had mine installed yesterday. Before I delve into the details, I would like to say that I am not an aftermarket exhaust expert. I haven't had an aftermarket exhaust installed on a car in well over ten years (college). With that said, I did have an Akrapovic slip-on installed on one of my S1000r's. The carbon actually faded over the three years I owned the bike, but the exhaust sounded incredible. I also briefly owned a Harley with an aftermarket exhaust and engine work; it sounded like a loud Harley.

Now that I have established that I am not an exhaust connoisseur, the Dinan exhaust in comfort mode is still relatively quiet, but it has a slightly deeper tone than stock. In Sport+ mode, the exhaust isn't obnoxious, but it is definitely louder. One thing that could be off-putting to some, the burbles and pops are certainly more prominent. The only other issue I could potentially see would be for those seeking exhaust tip aesthetics. Luckily for you, aftermarket options are available.

Sorry for the tangent on the exhaust, but I figured you all were well aware of how awesome this little car is.

Also, I have found Bimmerpost to be extremely helpful (lurking since my 135i many years ago), and far more civil than Audizine.
