Definitely had a S54 quality to it, got to hear one for myself. Took the M3 out last night for a canyon run, listened to my car ripping through the canyons as it was glorious. Love the new F8X cars, just the sound...

Too ricer, too turbo. But nothing BMW can do about that. It's just those stupid ass regulations...

Just maybe the M2 may sway me down the road???...
Very much doubt M2 will sound any better than f8x.

The Akrapovic exhausts have always been on the tame side of sound as displayed in the above video. Let's see what Eisenmann, RPi, or Meistershaft can do. I still have hope.
I'm not too much of a fan of the "rasp". Kind of almost sounds like a rusted up exhaust with holes in it.



But I concur. I am hoping some company will make an exhaust system that sounds and looks better than this.

Understand that, what I meant to imply is an M2 should be smaller and lighter and a lot more fun drive than my current M3 or the new ones. I hope.

It's got it's own character and I love it. Can't wait to hear the other exhausts that are going to be coming out.

It seems to me that the sound just doesn't fit a car of this size and caliber. The sound would fit perfectly with a smaller car like the e30. For this size and presence, it should be elegant and refined. I am showing my age I guess.

Edit:
Not that it 'should' be more refined. I would expect it to be more refined.

Sound is ok, but the look of those exhaust tips is fantastic! Depending on other aftermarket options at the time of purchase, I'd seriously consider the MPE just for the look alone.
