M performance exhaust was never a factory option and probably will never be. However, it's a port installed option, meaning once your car arrives at the vehicle distribution center in the states (aka port) they can install it at the port (they will keep your stock exhaust tho, just FYI). My friend recently ordered a 2020 M2C and she was able to add the MPE as a port installed option.

I’m really interested in seeing the MPE on a real car.

So the dealer has fitted my MPE (CF tips are still coming so ignore the bare pipes). Unfortunately all I have is this little start-up clip for now if anyone is interested. The car is inside so there is a bit of an echo but from what I've been told it's pretty loud and a lot deeper sounding than what the video can play back.
I just can't wait to collect the car and experience it in person now. |

So I finally took delivery of my M2C! Some initial obligatory pics attached.
First off, visually the MPE looks better in person than it does in pictures. You have to be really low to the ground to the see it hanging (or standing pretty far back) and even when you do see it I think it looks way better than the original exhaust. It looks like it's meant to be there whereas the original exhaust looks out of place, maybe it's the shape and the 'ridges/indents' in the original which contribute to the 'udder' look. I'm keen to see how it looks after some time and when the titanium starts to get some colour. Now on to the sound. Personally I'm really, really happy with the sound. It has a depth and bass to it that I love. Unfortunately it doesn't come through on videos but I have attached a short clip from inside the car (this was recorded in an underground parking). I'll try get some more recordings in the coming days. I'm also not revving it all the way since I'm still in the break-in period. When driving at low speeds and letting off the throttle the exhaust has an amazing "rumble". I think that's the best way to describe it, it doesn't burble but rather it rumbles instead and it sounds glorious. You can also hear the exhaust from inside the car when the windows are up so that's great. As you climb up the rev range the 'metallic' S55 sound does come through (and it's starting to grow on me) and you get some awesome sounds on upshifts. I can't wait to hear it at 6-7k RPM and when the exhaust has run in a bit more. I wish I could provide a comparative review, but unfortunately I haven't heard any other systems in-person. I hope this was helpful to some! |

My god that is hanging way too low... You now have your own M Performance ad display for anyone driving behind you. I would ask a discount for that kind of advertisement.

My M2C just finished production and is waiting for a ship. I have ordered the MPE as well, and will be installed at the VPC. I think it looks great, and is a massive improvement over the stock, full diaper looking monstrosity.
I will be sure to take plenty of pics and sound clips to post once I get the car. |

Are they seriously charging $4500 for the exhaust and $1500 for the tips?? That's ludicrous! That's more expensive than the M4 MPE. And more than $3500 more than the M2 system.

It's the same price as the M4 MPE, and that's at MSRP. If you buy it from MSRP you deserve to be had.
