MPE or Akropovic in Raleigh area

If anyone has a MPE or Akropovic exhaust on an M235 in Raleigh/Durham/CH and you don't mind me coming out and hearing it please send me a message. Thanks

Akra don't make one for m235i I'm pretty sure, MPE is not too much difference incab, I feel it's perfect compromised between comfort and sporty when paired MPE with a downpipe.

I have the MPE on a 2014 235i. Be glad to let you hear it. Where are you located?

Akra has one now for the M240i, though I'm not sure if it's compatible with the m235i. Anyone know?

Correct - there is no official akrapovic exhaust for the M235i.
I have a custom made akrapovic on mine, sounds great. I'd suggest going for the MPE or a Remus etc unless you want to pay quite a lot of money!

Just to follow up on this I did meet up with Boneman who was kind enough to both meet me and give me a ride in his car and I really liked the MPE. Will be picking one up in due course. I'm not an exhaust expert, but I thought it sounded way better than the stock exhaust, but not boy-racerish. [edited - may have been considered age-discriminatory to 26 year olds ]

Get it, you'll love it. Just had mine installed the same time my Bavsound complete upgrade was done. I haven't been listening to the speakers much.
