Looks great! Congrats!
Keep us updated on the mods. I think I'll be leaning towards an exhaust too. Need to lower it as well. The wheel gaps look like a safari CS!

I'm on the fence to pick one up and need a little motivation from people who bought. How do you like it so far?

I love the mod list. How long will stage 1 take? When will stage 2 commence?

Why not go straight to stage 2 brakes / suspension and wheels and save on not buying the 19" wheels. What is your thought process in doing brakes and smaller wheels in stage 2?

I purchased the car to test parts for my business and the benefit of the M2 community. I also want to demonstrate what can be done with E88's and these massive brakes.

All of this will be done over the winter months with phase 2 ready to hit the streets/track in spring.

That's great! Your work looks amazing. I would love to see what can be done with these brakes. Wait, E88's can fit around these brakes? I might be calling you soon.

Serious question, genuinely no shade intended in any way shape or form. With all the mods you have planned, why did you start with a CS for this, and not just use a Competition? Color, carbon roof, just because it was a CS? Seems like you are deleting much of the CS specific things with your mods, so I was curious why the base selection.

That was exactly what I thought as I read the mods list. It's only relevant for marketing if a lot of us would do the same, and I don't think we would.

Sometimes you do it because you can, which is fine too!

That's where I think people also forget how rare 564 cars really is... because when you get to the secondary market and really want a clean unmodified car after a few years between customizers, accidents and attrition... it drops to sub 400 pretty fast.
