akrapovic exhaust on a 2018 MY M2

So i was looking at one of these used that another forum member is selling. While i was checking out the akrapovic website to see what other parts they have, i noticed the exhaust only specifies 16-17 MY that it will fit. I talked to a sales rep there who said it would fit but I'm a little concerned because i told him I had a 2018 model and he asked me if i had the competition package :T. So i'm not sure he was real familiar with what i was asking.

I guess the question is has anyone fit one of these on there 2018 model yet and is there any issues?

The website also warns it does not fit exhausts fitted with the otto particulate filter but everything i've read so far is those were only started on the competition.

Anyone have some better knowledge than me on this?

A 2018 model year (in the USA) means you have a standard (N55 engine) M2...not an M2Competition (which uses the S55).

Any exhaust that fits on the 16-17 will fit your 18 just the same.

As andrew89 said, there is no difference in the engine, exhaust, and drive train for MY 2016, 2017, and 2018 M2. You will be fine buying it.
