MPE for G90 M5??

Has anyone seen or heard of any indications that MPE will be a port installed option for the G90 M5? To date I’ve only seen/heard that the exhaust tips are Motorsports only exhaust offering.

To keep this post relevant to the forum I guess I have to throw in the required hater speech that MPE would be a weight savings option.

What would be the point? So we could hear the electric motor better?

A neutered V8. Going to take more than just an MPE to make it sound good. Will need full aftermarket.

We need to see what the US versions sound like as our emissions/ exhaust regularations are less restrictive...no Otto Particulate Filter

My XM sounded good with the standard exhaust, the M5 lifts the V8 and electric motor directly from the XM. It will sound good. Or you can add an Akropovik aftermarket and it will sound even better.

You’re extremely consistent with the tone of your responses across numerous threads. I guess being the negative responder to all posts is your thing? What value do you bring as you never attempt to answer any question just snarky responses. You know the car weighs a ton we all get. When’s the horse going to be dead or are you going to whip it Ad Nuaseam? I’m going to give the car a run, under lease of course. I’m no fan of hybrid or weight. I think the car looks a little cool…it’s a departure. No plans to track it just a DD after turning in the F90. Keep your F90 they are great cars, others may have curiosity or a situation that lends itself to giving it a try ( mine is curiosity, run lease through business, and timing of lease end on 22 M5C)
I bought my first BMW w/ a 5K loan from my mom when I was in college. Might have been best one I’ve had over the years 72 TII that I converted to TI. It was a wicked car all 150hp. Zender airdam and wheel flares. Supersprint exhaust an headers. Weber DCOE dual side draft headers….sounded like a storm of bees on throttle. Over the years There have been E 36 M3’s, F32 M4 and many M5’s. Euro E34 six speed, E39 which was good in many areas not great in any, E60 V10 was cool too, Then an F10 till last stop the F90. That car was widely panned with the loss of SMG and to the purest’s horror 4 wheel drive. So yes I am older and have had the pleasure of driving many of this marque. I love the cars and have only owned them with the exception of some trucks over the years and one Mercedes AMG E55 that caught fire and almost burnt to the ground. I have some experience with M5’s. The facts are the facts. EU emissions requirements and the green scam movement tied their hands. Hopefully the pendulum will swing back on the whole green thing. Until then the choices for ICE vehicles is getting narrow

Enjoy your F90, keep it, maintain it most of all drive it. Place your energy in another direction than bashing a vehicle that NO ONE has driven nor have any car mags reviewed other than on one track. Zero on road impressions have been had so far.

Enjoy
