Awesome. I would totally buy an AWD M6 if they make it. You can always do little things to your GC and make it look sporty. You would be surprised what the right combination of mods can do but you have to make sure everything balances out and plays off of each other or you will just be slapping parts on with no flow. Makes a huge difference in the outcome. M4 would be a nice addition to your setup. You would probably have a blast terrorizing the streets up there during the spring/summer months. Just don't do it if it's a burden because then it's no fun.

Yes, Hunter totally understand you.
For the mods, I am thinking about a good set of rims for the coming spring(HRE)
A set of springs (ACS probably), some cosmetic products (aerodynamic kit, but not sure which one shall I go with), some performance upgrades(nothing comes out yet), and a good exhaust (just checked there is one brand called Capristo which sounds nice, but I never heard anything form other folks about it. Do you know it? )
Do you have any suggestion of mod give me? You built a nice nice beast already.

Never heard of Capristo but from the vid Bobblehead posted it sounds pretty good and it appears it comes with valves to open and close the sound which I think is a great feature.

At least he left the 650 badge which is a sign that he isn't trying to come off as an M but maybe just likes the way the bumper/diffuser looks aesthetically and who can blame him for that.

Yes I have also checked their official site. The exhaust does come with valves and remote control unit. However, I just want to get some experience from folks used them before I spend $6000+ for the mufflers
It is kind of expensive.

This is the best Hunter, but I think you can take some shot with rear view too.

Yes, the guy changed the exhaust tips. Capristo official website shows their exhaust tips are very similar with the one on stock.

I see you have your list of things to do coming next spring. Since you are wondering ...

Mostly found in the M3 crowds. They are a lot (race) louder than Akra, for sure. They sound like a straight pipe composition. But for $6000 US ... when shipping/taxes/installed ... you are looking closer to $8000 Cdn.

If you do this one, since sound is so subjective, I can say it's loud but others may say it's not loud enough. So you know that there is a chance I can see your significant half won't be too happy on the excessive noise and probably drone as well. To compensate, you may have to upgrade your speakers. As you can see, costs just keep on rising.

Yes, I do worry about the drone and loudness. My home-boss hates drones and loud exhaust and think it is kind of stupid. I have heard it comes with a remote valve control unit. Will it be ok if I close all the valves when boss is in?
