ZCP w MPE on M4

[Narmeen]

Guys - Is it worth getting the $5k M performance Exhaust with ZCP already?

(don't know the exact pricing of MPE but I think it's around $5000)

anyone gotten this combo already?

Hey!

I have no first hand experience in either (yet?), but from hat I've read in many posts,
It is not worth it. The upgraded, "M Sports Exhaust" that comes with the "ZCP" is
highly regarded by those who have purchased and received their cars with this
package.

Albeit, take that with a grain of salt, because most people don't knock what they've
just bought.

I've seen no independent/subjective comparison of the two. Just owners on either side.

So, there you go, I've basically said nothing!




Cheers!

I have it and I posted my feedback along with couple of videos. What type of feedback are you looking for?

You just asked the price in the other thread and you can easily find your answer on google. However, it costs close $6K including the CF tips.

I ordered an M4 back in June with the Ultimate Package which includes MPE. I haven't taken delivery yet but the wait is killing me. I can't wait to hear how it sounds in person.

It's a bummer we don't get the ultimate package here in the states. Would've gone that route instead of picking up parts here and there.

I was fortunate enough to find a used m4 with 5400 miles on it with the bmw motorsport exhaust already installed , sounds great in sport plus mode....can't wait to add catless pipes too

[dmk08]

Not worth it to me. I like the sound of the sports exhaust more than the MPE. I'm going to spend $500 on tips and paint can.

[Bmwlmr99]

Lol.....if I had to pay $5000 for 7.5hp cat back exhaust....the answer is no lol

This

It can be argued to be worth it if you have non ZCP. But ZCP sounds great as is.

I would be hard pressed to say any exhaust worth 5k is "worth it"

i agree that $6k is way too much for an exhaust when you are already paying like $5k for ZCP.

I have it on my ZCP.

WORTH. EVERY. PENNY.

[MW16M3]

I concur...Worth every penny. I have on my '16 F80 and top favorite things to do is hit the M1 in a tunnel, stomp on the gas to kick in that exhaust note!..Like Monaco F1!

[DD88]

Here's my MY17 M3 ZCP, completely stock.

(Please note that I have a mic for the exhaust)

I like the sound, only wished it was louder. Will probably do downpipes but that's all.

I agree. "Worth" is different for many people...a Rolex isn't "worth" it when an Apple watch offers so much....whatever....I freaking love my MPE. It's worth it, plus I hate that baggy saggy orangutan ass looking canister of the stock exhaust, it looks horrible, yuck.

bro MPE + ZCP is better than ZCP by itself. 👍

Not at all sorry. Sounds so much more raspy with MPE.

You can see the MPE can hang too snowflake. It is ugly as well.

[CaryTheLabelGuy]

The only thing I wish for in my well broke-in stock ZCP exhaust, would be a little more volume.

[deephouse]

Add some catless downpipes. I just installed them two days ago on a non ZCP car, the sound has more volume now

[LOW4LYF]

What about AA midpipe on a Zcp?

[330cibimmer]

I have MPE on my ZCP and I love it. Of course, I haven't heard the ZCP stock in person yet so no basis for comparison...
