I have the ZCP and I wouldn't tick the option again. I've replaced nearly every facet of the ZCP: the exhaust, springs, wheels, burbles, etc. Hell, I'm going port injection so even the added ability to run more E85 doesn't matter since I'll be running a tank full of it. I genuinely bought the M3 with the ZCP because I like the seats and didn't think I'd mod the car anytime soon.. all I had originally planned was a drop, some painted bits like paddle shifters and reflectors, some CF bits, and that's it.. that didn't last long at all. |

This pretty much sums up exactly why one should or shouldn't opt for the ZCP. |

Took delivery of my 16' M3 without the Competition Package. Two weeks before delivery the CP was announced. Yeah I wasn't happy but what are you going to do? It is what it is. Still love her even without it. (Have driven a CP.) To me its just not worth selling her for a newer one with the CP. I'm not a baller and losing up to 10k to then pay another 5k for the CP is just ridiculous in my opinion.

Bought 2018 M3, first M car, first BMW for that matter. Test driven used 2015, and found it to be borderline of what I would accept as comfortable for daily driving. Could easily afford competition package, but even if it was offered for free, I wouldn't get it, comfort being number one reason. Plus, PLENTY of performance for me...but than again I am coming from 2012 Civic... lol

Putting all the changes on paper and the cosmetics aside, if anything, I would get it for the exhaust burbles and pops which make the standard M4 dull. Period. Morale of the story, this is not a competition, its a better overall package in terms of value, cosmetics, more fun with the exhaust. And no sir, the ride is not less comfortable in any way than a standard M4. I am not saying this to prove anything. I have had both cars as I said, there is 0 difference, to me at least.

Or if you're just a bit wealthy, do both! I wish I could've saved the 5k.. fuck, that could've bought me upgraded turbos from Pure Hey Pure Turbos , want to trade the ZCP seats and seatbelts for an upgraded set of turbos?

Why should resale value be considered? The competition package depreciates just like any other option on the vehicle. Sure it may have a higher value upon resale than a similar car without it, but then again you pay more for it initially and receive pennies on the dollar upon sale. Its foolish to tick any option box based on re-sale unless by some miracle that option is worth MORE upon sale than it was upon purchase.

Yes if I was getting a manual gear box. Otherwise this cp is killing my budget.

I had ordered my M3, and then told the dealer to delay it once I heard about the ZCP coming out. So glad I did - I love it. Especially for someone who leases and doesn't want to mod the car only to have to remove them all later. |

Not sure what you mean by this. The CP seats feel to me like the standard seats with the lumbar support fully deflated.

It still has lumbar support or the seat would have no back. All cars have lumbar support, but some are better than others and some are adjustable.
