Congrats Andy! I know you're going to love the car. There is a possibility that some of us will be down at Road Atlanta sometime in March. If you've never been there, it's one to put on your list. A very nice track.

Congrats on the R purchase. Now, I know you haven't got the car yet, But what SPEED PARTS have you ordered fot it? Come on now and fess up.
BTW, this group of R owners doesn't let our cars just sit in storage. We DRIVE are cars. Take the car to a track (road course) and you will really be pleased with the car.

I figure the first aftermarket upgrade will be the diff cooler. Then probably at some point a roll cage. Dunno what else yet, as I am new to this type of car. I bought my M5 a little over a year ago and have done quite a bit of stuff to it since that time.... so, I am no stranger to "Speed Parts".
Although I will have to store the "R" in a storage facility since I only have a 2 car garage and I already have 3 vehicles! ... I DO plan on driving this machine quite a bit! And YES - I do plan on taking it to the track! I can't wait to hear the Borla exhaust wailing at TWS!

Better add a Bassani exhaust to that list, when you hear a R with one installed you will want one also.

Brian,
I know the car already has a Bassini X-pipe... is this Bassini exhaust to replace the existing Borla mufflers/pipes?? and if so, what is the advantage? sound, free-er flowing, looks, etc..????
Cause... it damn sure sounds intoxicating as is?!!!

Andy,
I believe the bottleneck is the stock Cobra 4 cat pipe. Most of us have been installing the full Bassani sysyem with free flowing cats and muffler. It sounds really great, but the noise level is a considerable amout louder. Some have put on off road pipes, but the additional hp gain supposidly is minimal.
