I love it so far. Zero drone from the exhaust. It's loud WOT. Huge improvement over pre-refresh (LCI) 335i which honestly I was completely unimpressed by. Not saying it's a bad car, but the LCI fixed almost everything that was wrong with the old F30.

I bought this so-called pussy-grabbing mobile myself and I'm fucking proud of it, I'm on my own insurance plan as well.

What do you mean by Euro stuff? Mirror caps are genuine carbon fiber from BMW. They look nice. It's not like some stick-on. You remove the OEM colormatched mirror caps and screw the CF ones in. No rice.

:
Euro hazards have a short, rapid flash versus your standard turn signal intervals. Here's a YouTube video of what they look like:

Euro fogs as in rear fog lights. Bought the Euro F30 light switch that has the rear fog button, and coded it in. LED tails come with the rear fog LEDs in them as it is.

Alrighty. The thought of that mod never even crossed my mind.

But I'm curious about the exhaust.

You on a lease or did you buy ?

I leased for 5 months and then bought out. No worries, I have a BMW extended warranty and again I work at BMW. I'm friends with techs, I get parts at cost, Access to lift and all the shop tools, etc... Lot of benefits.

Not my car, same exhaust setup, minus the 104mm diamond black tips. Those are the 95mm ones.

Trev is someone who got a lot of shit because he was an immature fuck on the forums circa 2014-2015. Trev has matured. Trev is made out to be an entitled little shit which is common for most 20 year olds, but believe it or not Trev is fully financially independent and NOT coddled as he's made out to be. Then again this is the internet, so who gives a fuck :lol:

I love the pops. I fucking love em. That being said you can turn them off. Depressing and sad? Honestly yes. It's a modern car. What do you expect?

I dunno I mean the car sounds broken ... it's not some 20 y/o civic in the hands of a high school student ...

I6s are one of the most difficult engines to get to a good sound state

You should be aware that I own a 440i GC. The slight aerodynamic advantage of the long slope of the rear window gives me a bit larger advantage than you might think . I'm making the equivalent of 700whp with the aero.

Pops and crackles are computer generated. Dumps fuel. Same shit in the F-Type R.

Well, shit! First and foremost you have great taste, secondly the aero is definitely bringing that car to 60 a whole second less than mine
