I agree with the pops and bangs, great fun. I do find they sound different to the F56. Also when driving behind them, you'll notice the offside tailpipe butterfly valve thing open and close.
I've drove lots of M3,4,5 & 6 the competition pack upgrade is very nice bit of kit. lots of carbon fibre everywhere.
work in the factory do you? so far the handbrake has been fine, worst handbrake i've ever had the misfortune to be stuck with was the one on my e46 m3. even after replacing everything from the shoes/springs/adjuster wheel/actuator to discs, it eventually became 'ok' but not great.
i bought the m3 about 2 months before the comp pack was announced, but the spec on mine is pretty much exactly what i wanted, most comp packs i see around are pov spec (comparatively)
and yes it's an individual colour called signal green, same green porsche have had for years. the colours aren't one offs though, just rare, theres a few other signal greens about but not many, chris harris had one for a while.
