For the E92 M3 I could see the appeal since dropping nearly 50lbs of weight was a huge improvement on that platform.

But on the G80, why spend $7K on an exhaust other than to impress others?
Hey come on. We're not here to impress each other. I said it sounded great on the test drive M5 compared to the neutered G82. I didn't commit to buy. Hoping the aftermarket vendors can match the sound or make something better. I think anyone here can afford the exhaust. Same thing for someone spending $8k for aftermarket wheels when the stock are perfectly fine. If it floats your boat. Why judge?
For sure. Whoever wants to spend the money that's perfectly fine and no one should say a thing in that regard. I'm curious though why the appeal this time around since weight doesn't seem to be such an important factor and sound improvement on the S55/S58 is not as drastic as the S65.
