And what universally acknowledged standard defines that sentiment?
Your statement is based just as much on YOUR personal preferences as a statement that one type of music sounds much better than another... Just because I like Bach, doesn't mean everyone else agrees that his music is the best...
Or that a NASCAR sounds better than a F1 car... I'm sure you will find lots of people who prefer NASCAR to F1 sound and vice versa. Doesn't mean any of them are right or wrong, it's just personal preferences.
And I prefer the more hard, racy sound the S55 had in the last two videos to the more soft, warbly and mellowy S65 sound (stock exhaust). The S65 with stock exhaust is probably much more "likeable" to a US audience grown up on V8 engines, whereas the S55 seems to have a more "European" high pitched metallic sound in the two videos in the OP.
