This should prevent manufacturer's practice of offering shitty stock exhausts and better aftermarket (m performance) ones.. |

I also wonder if this is a total ban on all "valve technology", even ones from factory? Since if you put it into Sport mode it basically keeps the valves open most of the time. |

Does anyone have any other source for this information? I cannot find a mention of it anywhere, not a peep. Surely there’s a car site out there that would’ve reported on this considering it affects all aftermarket exhausts?

All they need to do is just start making the M cars louder stock.
Problem solved.

Hurry up Brexit...? Would UK be excluded. This is a small disaster. Governments doing their very busy to finish off the car industry at every opportunity.

I am currently trying to source the M Performance Exhaust from anywhere in Europe but seems like an impossible task.
All the dealers (that I've contacted so far) say that there's absolutely no inventory whatsoever left and they are unaware of when or if there will be an updated version in the future. (For what it's worth, based on the info I've read, I personally also believe that there will be one at some point.) If anybody can advise me where to find one inside the EU (trying to avoid ridiculous custom fees and taxes), I'd be more than happy! Thx already in advance. |

Unfortauntely we’re absorbing all EU laws for the meantime (I believe including transition period). The chances of a law like this getting reviewed post Brexit is incredibly slim too. I still struggle to believe this is real though, waiting for more evidence.

BMW, just include the M-Performance Exhaust as the stock option. You're welcome BMW; I know, I'm a genius. Let me know when you want me to take the job as head of the M division, and we can start the development of cost effective, environmentally safe, light weight M cars with hydraulic steering and driver focus.

So make the default exhaust mode loud and call the button "Quiet mode".
