I recently got to start one up and I have to say that the YouTube clips really don't do it justice + they all sound very different. One reason for this is that the butterfly valves in the active exhaust system are mapped and controlled by the individual M Engine Dynamic Control modes. Even at idle / blipping the throttle whist stationary (i.e. no engine load) you can really hear the difference in each mode Efficient is understandably muted however I thought Sport Plus was particularly good and nothing like the sound in that clip.
I'm gonna hold u to that. I almost fell of my chair hearing that clip!
