G87 M2 CS Wannabe with help from Dinan

2024M3CS · 12-17-2023, 07:16 PM

For those that want a little CS inspiration. I am finally about done with my M2 modifications. I have had a 22 M4 Comp X-drive and a 2024 M3 CS. This is by far a more enjoyable bang for buck experience.

That's a lot of carbon fiber. Did you trade the CS for this? Do you really like the M2 better, or is it just better for the money?

2024M3CS · 12-18-2023, 07:20 AM

Yes, CS was traded. This car is more practical and half the price, plus I can slide around a bit. The CS was a nice machine but with no cup holders, center console, and with the carbon seats it wasn't the most practical car.

What was your thought on the exhaust from Dinan?

Love the pop the hood - cf view ftw!!!

no matter what you do to the regular g87, it is not going to be the CS (unless you blow an insane amount of $$ on it), just like when people invest into the m240i to "make it" a M2

The Exhaust from Dinan is fantastic. I have the axle back and the Mid-pipe. Not too loud and lots of comments on how great it sounds.

Car looks great! I'm planning on doing the mid pipe first then maybe the axle back. I've heard the difference with just the mid piple and it totally changes the car. It's like a way deeper sporty tone; and that's with just the mid pipe. Cannot wait to get mines.

Enjoy!

If you want the CS look, I would get the M Performance H.A.S. (Or KW H.A.S. for half the price) and a set of spacers for the wheels. I had 15 front and 12 rear which I really liked.
