I don't know why people are so surprised by the price of the M performance exhaust? It's the same as the MPE in the G80/G82 it's nothing new

I even think their literature is carefully avoiding the subject. Of course I could be wrong.

The wings and aero kit do provide aero benefits but how much? No one will ever measure it in a wind tunnel. The forged wheels are the best performance mod you can get. |

Agreed, many itrms are cosmetic and focused on appearance. Any performance upgrades can also be sourced from outside manufacturers (possibly better quality at same or less price.. and if making performance upgrades, I am far more concerned with quality and installed by a proven performance shop than installed by BMW for a warranty). As for rims, there are far better options outside of BMW wheels (which to me, are nothing special looks wise). |

Not me, but a lot of people like original manufacturer aftermarket equipment. Some just like building their mods into the original purchase for financial reasons; others don’t have the skill, confidence, or patience to build an aftermarket solution themselves.
Still want the center-lock wheel/hub upgrade M Performance Parts promised…. |

MP HAS didn’t get released until about 1.5yrs after the G80/G82 launched. Hopefully won’t be nearly as long of a wait for you M2 guys/gals but not surprised to see it unavailable currently.

Considering the car looks like it’s an xDrive mobile, or still sitting on shipping blocks, I seriously hope they hurry it up.

The wings and aero don’t provide any downforce. Read the press materials if you don’t believe me. The OEM forged wheels are simply too large, I think you are better off with a set of smaller diameter forged wheels. Again not sure there is any proven performance gain. So in theory M Perf parts may sound good, but unless someone is willing to provide data, they are just for looks. And there is nothing wrong with that, as long as you go in with open eyes.

The wheels are not interchangeable, so I seriously doubt that they’d actually fit in general
