It didn't when I ordered it. They changed the package and add the spoiler.

They did add it to my bill though and that has now been taken back off. If you order early Feb the package hadn't been changed.

I'm lucky because im adding the m performance spoiler anyway so glad it wasn't on.

For everyone waiting on an order I'd check with your dealership.

Will you get the car delivered with the M Performance parts fitted?

Yep.

The sills (body colour), Grilles, diffuser, mirror caps and spoiler will all be fitted for pickup day :-)

Exhaust will go on when it comes into stock.

Looking forward to seeing it.

Are you painting the diffuser too (not the CF part)?

What price was the sports exhaust.

Well .... this piece has not even been mentioned to me and possibly not even ordered unless it comes with the carbon diffuser..

My worry is that there are two different pieces one for the normal exhaust and one for the m performance although it doesn't mention that.

I'm waiting for a phone call, I have not mentioned it to them because that is their job to sort out.

They know I'm having the m performance exhaust so hopefully they put two and two together but I'm not hopeful.

£1394 fitted. Could have got it a bit cheaper but wasn't worth the bother.

Thanks for the price.
I'll wait until you've had it fitted and then look forward to your post with a link to it in action. I guess the power kit is going to be silly money on top of the exhaust price.

Am I right in thinking the baffles only open on the sports exhaust when in sport mode?

I reckon this last bit is the worst. I ordered my car in Nov and have been excited ever since but now it's nearly here .......

This last bit is the worst! The car is sat about 5 miles away and I can't get it

Not sure about the baffles but i'll get some slips once fitted.

I haven't seen a price for the power kit yet.

You have great patience- can u not pick it up and book it back in for the parts when they arrive. You could be waiting for weeks.

I could pick it up, but just want it done, however, it has got to go back in for the m performance exhaust when that comes in. I'll see what happens with the parts this week.

I had to wait 5 months for the M3 so this has been a walk in the park waiting for this!

So the dealer called today - my car arrives tomorrow and they said I could have it next Tuesday- I asked for the legendary BMW customer service and could I have it this week. 8.00 sat morning, I drop off the f31 and swap it for the g30.

So it's arrived. Picked it up at 8.00 this morning and been driving all day. It is an astonishing car. Monsterously quick, great fun to drive and crammed full of more tech than I've ever seen in a BMW outside of a 7. I had to go back to the F31 to download the hard drive - suddenly it felt like a tractor in comparison. Apparently the car is monitoring its own run in progress and will decide when it's ready to release its full power. Probably in 2-300 miles. Needless to say I love it.

Make sure you post pics

So here are a few photos. Another 100 miles today - It is a great place to be.

Happy Driving
