I had my F10 M5 back in 2012-2013. The must mod for me is the exhaust; it needs more to compliment the incredible power.

In order of what I would do:

1. Exhaust
2. Drop
3. Power upgrades (tune-DP's- etc)
4. Aesthetics (this could come first since cheap)- painted reflectors, coding, tint
5. Wheels (pricey)

Take a look at the Engine Bay. Also the tips and the drop. Right after delivery, I was psyched. Got it last night.
Great looking car you have! Do you feel any power with Dinan intakes? How is sound of the intake?

You do feel power. It's much angry sounding than stock. I'll see if I can upload a video or sound clip.

He's got the DINAN intakes already. Won't need charge pipes unless he has plans to upgrade to meth one day.

I wasn't sure about meth but that's call me a noob but unless I'm tracking the car, is it necessary? Granted it's a bunch of more power but at the risk of what?

Downpipes sound good but wouldn't that kill my service agreement?

Soooma,

You're not lying. After the tune and mods, it's insanely fast. Driving under 30 mph takes effort.

I apparently do.

According to DINAN, "The DINANTRONICS Performance Tuner currently only works with vehicles equipped with mechanical wastegates with a production end date of 04/2015. Vehicles with a production date of 05/2015 and newer may have a electronic wastegate and will not work with the DINANTRONICS Performance Tuner. Only a visual identification is 100% accurate. Please consult the wastegate identification guide*HERE*to accurately identify what is on the vehicle."

Just check your production date. http://www.bmwvin.com

They apparently make different types. But whatever the case is, CORRECTION: I'm under the production date. My car was born on July 4th, 2014.
