Nope. That is RLX with OEM tires. only Advan Sport HP are considered to be the upgraded tires.

So yah i found an exhaust i wanted for $100. But it is for F32 435i Coupe. I thought it would fit on the F36 GC... but the seller said it won't fit.

But akrapovic website says their exhaust fits F30/F32/F36... googled and found very little info.. and none of them is confirmed information anyway.


first world problem....

ONE hundred?

Isn't that "just buy it and find out" price?

it will require cutting my stock pipes.... dont really feel like cut the pipe and only to confirm that yes it really does not fit like someone already told me so.

but on the other hand, you have info like this, which makes you wonder how can they possibly be different.

Gran Coupe (F36)
Length: 4,638mm
Width: 1,825mm
Height: 1,389mm

Coupe (F32)
Length: 4,638mm
Width: 1,825mm
Height: 1,377mm

and the coupe and Gran coupe share the same part # for the M performance exhaust
