Nice build! Let us know how the exhaust note sounds, we're dying to know if it's different to MY20.

Congrats! 2 months?! Ha, that's chump change. I'm at 4.5 months and counting, though I'm just waiting for plates/registration to arrive so I can drive it home. MA DMV is really backed up due to COVID.

That said, no shots of the whole car?

I'm not the OP, but I also just took delivery of my MY21. I have the M Performance exhaust on my car. The exhaust character is definitely different from the MY20 sound; there are hardly and pops/bangs/burbles. I get them *occassionally* here or there, but seems to be relatively rare. In the MY20 I recall hearing burbles on any overrun or liftoff, in the MY21 you hear them rarely, but on occasion. I will say the M Performance exhaust, though, is plenty loud and sounds great! The videos I saw of it do not do it justice and I think it sounds amazing.

Overall I am pleased with the exhaust; do I wish there were more pops? Yes, but I'm also coming from a C43 AMG with the performance exhaust, which is really aggressive with pops, bangs, and burbles (more than even the MY20 M340i exhaust).

Awesome! you got nearly my identical build can you post a full side profile when you get a chance. When I got the order sheet I was surprised they added the M Performance Decals on the side sills but I like that it's small and not that large one I've seen on some other video's.

Thanks for this, honestly if they did mess with the stock exhaust sound people should be complaining to corporate. Maybe they would provide incentives on parts like the MPE as a goodwill gesture.

I agree, this is what I've been saying as well. The M340i's were known to have an awesome exhaust note with pops and burbles and if that was a factor for peoples decisions than BMW really needs to make it right. Everyone buying a 2021 is technically paying more to get less. There should at least be an options to whether you want the pops or crackles. Everyone should be calling corporate.

BTW OP - Your car looks AMAZING. The red calipers really pop compared to my blue ones. Enjoy the ride! I'm almost 1 year in for my G20 and loving it more and more

I've done the same with the M performance goodies. Wish there was an option for the red calipers on the MY20 when I got mine. Looks great.

Hold my beer... I'm at 5 months already and don't expect to get it until December! In full disclosure, it was supposed to be set for ED and then a few weeks ago decided to finally just have it shipped.
