Does anybody have the enhanced sound option on their M3? Is it worth it?

Loud does not equal good.

Would I rip apart a $70K+ car the way I tore into my $20K car? Hell no... Do I trust someone else to? Probably not. I plan on getting the enhanced premium sound and just dealing with it. If it really doesn't sound right, I might take it to another level with a few small upgrades, however I will most certainly take my time to ensure it's done right (either by me or someone who I can trust).

Who cares how much the car costs? I've worked on everything from a Geo Metro to a brand new Gallardo and there is absolutely NO correlation to how easy a car is to work on and how much it costs.

Also, there is no such thing as an small upgrade with the EP system. Ask Technic, it's a monster pain in the ass to work on. You already know you're not going to like it so you might as well just start with the base stereo and make your life easier.

Logic 7 in my old 550i = pretty awesome.

Stock system in my new M3 = pretty shitty.

But I find myself getting all the way home from work without ever turning the radio on. And that's commuting. On the weekend? On nice roads? With the windows down and sunroof open? What stereo?
