There's a couple reason's for that..

1.) Many of our items in our custom catalog contain either multiple parts, and/or bundled parts, and our website is limited to displaying a single MSRP per item. For example the M Perf exhaust you referenced at MSRP of $1685 has 4 options built into that special.....and each option has 2 parts bundled into them - the exhaust (2 versions - vehicle with or without M Perf diffusor) + the exhaust tips (your choice of chrome or carbon fiber) that BMW usually sells separately.

We bundle the items for your convenience and to make ordering easy - and our pricing reflects all of the items included in the bundle. MSRP on the m235i exhaust by itself is currently $1200.00, and the carbon fiber tips are $250.00 each for a total of $1700.00. Our $1685 MSRP shown for this special is actually a little lower and obviously a little outdated, however the discounted price of that option (m235i exhaust w or w/o m perf diffusor + 2 carbon tips) is correct at $1354.60. The convenience for you is that you can just select the option you want/need from that single exhaust special, add it to your cart, and checkout. There's no need to have tons of different options cluttering up our site, or requiring the customer to add the exhaust and 2 individual exhaust tips to their cart before checking out.

2.) BMW's MSRP has been fluctuating a bit, typically on a monthly basis...so it's hard for us to keep up everytime this occurs. We concentrate on making sure our discounted pricing is accurate, but don't always have time to go back through and update MSRP as well since we have one of the largest custom catalogs and each listing is manually handled....so often it's just an out of date listing for MSRP.

To sum up, we discount our parts as deeply as we possibly can while still maintaining the margins our business model requires. Sometimes another vendor is just going to offer a better price on a part - but we'll always be happy to take a look and offer a match if possible. Sometimes we can and do, other times we can not as we've realized a long time ago the margins our business requires to be sustainable and maintain the level of service and support we proudly offer.
Great thank you very much for the response! I am looking to do the M Performance exhaust at some point so I will definitely give you a call when I am ready!
