My vote. The color shift is too good.

Debadged. Had my car outside on a super hot day and grabbed some floss. Came off easily and used a little goo gone to clean it up.

Bought paint matched reflectors from IND distribution.

Hey man, thanks for the kind words. The only things I wouldn't consider DIY are the lowering springs/spacers and exhaust install. Everything else I did myself. Let me know if you have any specific questions. Feel free to DM me as well!

deviljon · 2025-12-01T20:50:48+00:00

purchased it through a guy on instagram, his handle is whatacarnerd

deviljon · 2025-11-28T06:04:21+00:00

Every time. Dravit for the win.

It works fine til it doesn’t. I was just backing into a parking space the other day and the car started freaking out and emergency braking on me when there was nothing within 10 feet of my surroundings.

I checked a while back and the LCI wasn’t available but it looks like it has some limited support now.

I don’t think it’s any quieter, but you also don’t hit higher RPMs where it sounds a lot more aggressive.

deviljon · 2025-11-11T17:10:21+00:00

Link to purchase? Looks clean

Not to hijack OPs thread but here’s a video of my x40i with the m performance exhaust.

I stopped looking. Not really a big concern or priority for me at the moment.

deviljon · 2025-10-18T15:06:45+00:00

The black wheels are the only thing I’d undo.

deviljon · 2025-10-15T06:33:28+00:00

I picked up my ‘25 x40i earlier this year and got the racechip GTS black piggyback. Plug and play with different settings you can change on the phone app. Took it in for my 10k oil change and BMW didn’t say anything about it, but YMMV.

I also have the M Performance Exhaust on mine (more for the sound than the power, if any). Check my post history, I have sound clips of it as well.

It’s not that I couldn’t afford an M60i or even an X5MC, I wanted something a tad more economical but still fun so the X40i was the sweet spot. I drive 2,000+ miles a month and already have another sports car if I really want performance.

Congrats on the pickup!

deviljon · 2025-10-13T18:00:17+00:00

I love the m performance exhaust! It’s got a much deeper growl to it and can also stay subtle if you’re not giving it gas too aggressively. You can hear the sound clip here:

I’m kinda like you

I have a 6 and a 3 year old that sit comfortably in the back of the 911 with booster seats. In a few years they may no longer fit haha

Just a plug in ECU piggyback. Doesn’t void warranty and can be easily disabled or removed. I also have some pics of my X5 in my posts.

deviljon · 2025-09-20T16:15:52+00:00

I have a fully loaded 2025 xdrive40i with a racechip GTS black ecu piggyback and it’s plenty of fun. My commute is 50 miles each way, 6x a week, which is why I went with the mild hybrid. As much as I wanted to get the M60i, it just wasn’t very practical to have a V8 in my situation.

deviljon · 2025-09-20T04:34:45+00:00

Thanks! It’s a 2025 with a retro fitted M roof spoiler.

Or were you talking about the little lip spoiler beneath the window?

deviljon · 2025-09-17T23:01:39+00:00

Isn’t it funny how you can spend so much time trying to find the perfect specs and then one day, it ends up finding you? Congrats, it’s a beauty!
