I don't think the Performance Exhaust is worth the cash, and frankly I like the stock exhaust that sounds kind of like an F1 car from behind as opposed to Perf which sounds like a muscle car. Nothing against muscle car sounds, just seems out of place on an M3 in my view.

I prefer 19" non-Comp wheels to Comp -- they look more distinctive and are the only ones that are forged. Comp 19s and stock 18s are cast. Stock 18s look ok on Jet Black if you want a Batmobile look, but otherwise yeah they don't look so hot.

I like the Aluminum trim and especially Premium Sound, but why should trim choice depend on whether the OP gets Premium Sound?
