If you prefer titanium: FWIW, a UK agent of Akrapovič hinted to a release of the Akrapovič M2 exhaust before this Summer (see here).
Don't take for granted that the Akrapovic exhaust will be titanium. They use it only if they believe they can sell the exhausts at a premium. The E92 335i was available as Ti but didn't sell well so they went with SS for the F30 335i to keep costs down.

Now as basically every 1M has a Ti Akrapovic it probably will, but it isn't certain.
