Ok, here's the deal. I bought this 2018 M4 brand new 10 weeks ago, bought a brand new MPE from the dealer at time of sale, took delivery of installed exhaust about 2 months ago. Put about 1200-1500 miles on the car with the exhaust over a 2 month period in Austin weather (dry) and did not drive it in the rain. The exhaust is brand new. I sold the car at the 2 to 3 month point, realizing I made a mistake and went back to Porsche. I had the exhaust removed at my dealer and it is sitting nice and pretty in my attic. IT IS AN AS NEW EXHAUST. People are messaging me, low balling me thinking they can buy a "used" exhaust for $2k or something. Sorry people, I paid over $5k for this thing not long ago and I really don't feel like being raped, so do yourself a favor and don't message me if you are a low baller. The exhaust has carbon fiber tips, so the MSRP is North of $6k. I paid about $5k. If you want a new exhaust for $3,500, and you want to save $1,500, have at it. But if you are a low baller, please don't bother me

Bump, exhaust is off my car and now ready for sale

GotM? · 01-08-2018, 06:19 PM

Bump, should sell pretty fast!

Someone's getting a new exhaust for a big discount

spmd11 · 01-15-2018, 08:02 PM

Bump, still for sale!

spmd11 · 01-20-2018, 05:39 PM

I'm dropping the price to $3,500 for the BALANCE OF JANUARY ONLY. This is ridiculous price for essentially a brand new exhaust with carbon tips.

FWIW Fedex will take the mid-pipe unboxed for a couple hundred CONUS. I measured it and its like 75 x 34 x 8 which is just under the total girth ( L + 2W + 2H) of 165" allowed by Fedex.

Interesting. What do you mean unboxed? Do they package it up?

Yeah just ship without a box. Just wrap the ends and hangers in bubble wrap/corrugated cardboard and slap a label on the pipe itself.

And just hope it's not damaged in-transit?

My MPE was shipped in Greyhound very cheap, from Florida to CA. No damage!

Did you box it? Problem with Greyhound is that you cannot insure it

Right? Still for sale! I paid $5k for it and thought I got a good deal as MSRP on Exhaust is $5,490 and tips is $1,364 for a total MSRP of $6,854 and it's two months old! And I'm selling it for almost half of that? And it's in brand new condition.

You can ship the mid-pipe without a box. I did it, wrap the hanger tips and flanges with cardboard and bubble wrap. Fedex will take it no problem.

I just went through this and the stupid troll at Fedex measured it 1.5" over the limit of 165". I tried to argue that she was rounding up when she shouldn't but she wasn't having any of it. Someone else in Canada told me they were able to ship the mid pipe via fedex as well. Maybe I just got unlucky.

Doesn't really matter because in the end I shipped the mid pipe un-boxed (wrapped in foam and cardboard) via greyhound and the muffler/tips/hardware via Fedex.

But you risk the pipe getting damaged in-transit or crushed, etc, right?!?! Common sense here?
