Buying exhaust OS
Evening,
Has anyone purchased an exhaust from OS and had it shipped? I am seeing crazy prices for mpe on eBay (another thread) and wondered if it’s a different exhaust to what we get here? I am partial to the Remus but at $4300 plus tips it’s insane |

I took a look at buying the M-Performance exhaust from Cotswold BMW in the UK. They're regularly helping UK based folks (here is a thread they run on parts pricing) ... and I used them to get a genuine M-Performance rear diffuser for my car ... landed cost was about $900 compared to $2,400 buying locally.
At the time, I recall it was going to cost about $3k landed (they had a sale going) ... so you'd have to cough for GST, but even then, it was less than half the price of buying here. I didn't end up pulling the trigger and I'm happy with the stock exhaust ... so just sharing my experience. Cheers, |

As V.smurf mentioned Cotswold Bmw in the UK would be my pick if i was to purchase the Bmw MPE from overseas, they were very helpful when i was looking to buy last year and pricing was very competitive, however after much deliberation i ended up purchasing a Remus system locally.

I'm considering the Remus exhaust. Have one on my Triumph Thruxton and the workmanship is fantastic.
How have you found it on the M2? Are you happy with the sound and can you notice any difference in how the car feels? Cheers, Alex |

I stayed away from MPE because of drone, cold start rattle and reports of the muffler filling with water (though the updated MPE has a drain hole) |

I'm selling my Milltek system from my M2 N55 here in Sydney for $2200 (with CF tips, also have the polished ones available if needed) for anyone interested?

Easy fit, looks fantastic and sounds great, unfortunately I use my car for work and corporate client visits all day so it's not a good look to be turning up in a loud sports car. I've put my stock exhaust back on, and I miss the sound especially the turbo spooling
