I love the intake. It makes a little more sound than stock from inside the cabin but my exhaust is pretty loud so it makes it tougher to hear. From the outside/front of the car it sounds incredible. Fit and finish are top notch.

Went to a BC Childrens Hospital Charity event today. Was a small event but cool to see a supercharged e92 m3.

Also had to buy 1L of oil to top off since I got the "warning". I thought Motul oil would be more pricey compared to other brands but its surprisingly cheap. Our Autozone equivalent "Lordco" had it for $10.61CAD per Litre , I was expecting around $20+CAD because Redline 10w60 was $22CAD/Litre

*Motul X-Power 8100 10W60 To be exact.

I am selling mine and I am flying into Toronto on Wednesday, so I could possibly make it a "local" sale lol. Nothing wrong with it, only selling because I am going to get the red "M" button from IND and their start button to match.

Not sure if CCC has anything to do with it. It's just physically too short.

They're located overseas, figured I'd roll the dice. It looks like they have a good number of them remaining. I see Alcantara option as well but I did not want that.
