Common Superformance Upgrades

[JJM3]

I’m new to the board and I’m taking a hard look at getting a SPF in the near future. I’m a long time M3 owner, but new to Cobras. Right now I’m trying to gauge the price difference between new and used SPF’s. The prices on new SPF’s are becoming more attractive. What are the most common upgrades to the base SPF rolling package that are made (and if you know the approx cost - all the better)?

The key items I know I’ll probably want from the factory are:

• Upgrade to 17” wheels
• Passenger side roll bar (don’t like full bars, but want protection for wife/son)
• Silver Ceramic coated headers & side pipes (part of base pkg?)
• Larger cross drilled/slotted brakes (I’m on the fence here - brake thread makes me a little uneasy with stock setup)

Maybe the brakes are fine, but I’ve been used to my M3’s running aftermarket brakes (the M’s are heavier than they should be). I know the Cobras are in a completely different weight class, but I’m not used to seeing wheels not filled with a rotor.

I assume I’ll do the easy post factory changes – harnesses, shift knob, etc., but I want to make sure I don’t miss anything that should be best done by SPF.

Thanks,
John
