I seriously hope so although getting confirmation has proved almost impossible...will confirm when dealer takes delivery...arrived in Grimsby on Monday so wont be long. Definitely a MY20, and built 29th August so everything points towards that :laugh:

Mine has arrived with the Akra exhaust.  Looks great.  Handover not for another couple of weeks though.

From the clip I've heard, it will be great and a much-needed option.  :cool:

My dealership was “unpacking” a TCR yesterday (Pure Grey, 5 door) ready for PDI which arrived a week back and that had the Akrapovic so would guess any just landed will definitely be fitted with them. No opportunity to hear it but the appearance is far better than my standard chrome tips and really does set the rear off well.

That exhaust should have been standard from the start, looks sooo much better and suits the car.

I have to agree with you, it looks much better. I'm not sure how easy it is to clean once deposits start building up, I'd be interested to hear of owner experiences. I am guessing it will be powder or ceramic coated.

Will build up on the exhaust be less with the exhaust on the filter now?  But yes, not sure how I am going to clean it just yet...
