BMW has released a new exhaust system for the current M3 coupe, sedan and convertible. This new M Performance system is crafted from lightweight, heat-resistant Inconel, and when combined with the current M3's high-revving 4.0-liter V8, the end result is a much more throaty, powerful sound.

The M Performance exhaust is approximately 20 pounds lighter than the standard setup, made up of perforated inner pipes and polished titanium tips with the BMW M logo. What's more, this flow-optimized exhaust reduces overall back pressure, allowing for more aurally stimulating sound.

But the truth is, words don't do this new exhaust system justice. Thankfully, BMW fitted the M Performance exhaust system to an M3 coupe and created a video, which you can watch after the jump. If you like what you hear, BMW even offers the M Performance exhaust note as a ringtone (seriously), available at bmwusa.com/news. Hit the jump for the details, including the price: a steep $4,374, not including installation.

I like mine better!!! No power gains given cause the mufflers don't do shit, the car comes with 4 cat converters.

The video is before I put the xpipe on too. BMW and dinan are way over priced.

I did see the BMW exhaust was made of Inconel, which is FUCKING EXPENSIVE. I saw a Porsched 997 Turbo Inconel Exhaust for 10 gs

LOL, good lord. One company was making full exhaust for the M3 out of titanium for 10k.

Full exhaust? Is that header back on those cars? Or is that still after cat?

I think it was cat back, my exhaust was just the mufflers!

 

[bluzohh6]

Didn't you remove the secondary cats?

 

[Turk]

Didn't you remove the secondary cats?

Yeah, when I did the x-pipe. Might as well as there were no sensors connected to them.

I am surprised the mount for the rear end didn't break when he did the burnout! I think Turks sounds better and it was CHEAPER! Ricky, I like what they did with the front bumper painted black like I was telling you.

I think that sounded turrible. And the price is always a joke on their exhausts.

That Remus one sounds insanely better.
