$15k cheaper than full fat and you miss out on metallic paint, sunroof, laser headlights, soft close doors, rear wheel steer and active roll bars. Makes the car about 80kg lighter. My car was a demo and i didn’t care about the options I missed out on, but it had metallic paint and sunroof optioned. Drive away I paid $128k including 3 years basic servicing which was $22k less than a new pure. The car had 265kms on it.

I got mine brand new with metallic paint for under $130k drive away as well. Absolutely loving the car. I've yet to see another one on the road either so they are pretty rare down here |

This makes it clear thanks for the confirmation.
Looking up the spec this is basically what I ordered in the UK, i.e. no heavy options. https://www.carexpert.com.au/bmw/5/2...e-lci-e2feb3b0 There's no way on Jb4 map 1 my car is making more than 600bhp and yet I find myself pulling out some decent 100-200 times and walking away from tuned RS7's and RS6's. If the car weighs 1826KG rather than 1900KG+ as I originally thought, that explains it. |

I have to say that your M550i sounds Great but those tips installed for $300 is probably the best money spent on mods that I've seen (and over the years I've modded some cars)!
Those looks absolutely Incredible and make your M look just plain Nasty! They did a Great job too, especially for only $300! |

I've recently ordered these from Alibaba ( https://m.alibaba.com/product/622999...00000%22%7D%7D ) I will be receiving them in 2 weeks. Hopefully they're a better fit. I'll be doing a MPPSK on my 540i. |

https://www.ebay.com/itm/31337199485...Cclp%3A2334524 The shop preferred the other one which I installed. I returned the unused Magnaflow. I am very happy with the sound this x-pipe makes along with the straight pipes. No complaints, no drone, love it.

Off of Ebay, they are everywhere. The install took me all of 30 minutes maximum.

Good call on the diffuser. I'm waiting on my Carbon Fiber diffuser, styled similarly - it should look sharp with my Dinan axle-back exhaust and mid-pipe.
