    Default About to pull the trigger on this...

    All options, plus Carbon Splitters/Carbon Mirrors/BMW M Performance Exhaust.

    Just not sure if I want Red. First choice is Interlagos Blue.

    Also, what is the feeling on BMW M Performance Exhaust? It is shown as a $4600 option. Sounded amazing. Worth it? Or better aftermarket?

    WAY better aftermarket. Cheaper, lighter and better sounding.

    That exhaust is a waste of money. Money would be way better spent on an Akrapovic exhaust on that car, its not too loud, doesn't drone, and has a beautiful sound to it.

    I'd go with ActiveAutowerke, you can get everything done, X-pipe, Exhaust, pulley, air filter, even a supercharger if you want to go nuts.

    Good luck, and enjoy the M3 in good health!

    Looks awesome in red, but i would paint the rims black or get some aftermarket black rims.

    Aftermarket exhaust for sure. I went with all the Active stuff. For a cabrio, though, I wouldn't suggest their full exhaust. It sounds amazing, but it's LOUD. Unless performance is top of your list (which I'm assuming it's not, or you would go coupe), it can get a little annoying windows down, or top down. Beautiful car, though, and I'm typically not a fan of the cabrios
