the F80 is WORLDS better performance car. the E9x guys understand this, they dont go trolling around saying the E92 is a better performance car. BUT its a simple fact the N/A V8 was a more vocal engine. IMO you can say the F80 is better in every single way, but it will not win in the sound department. Even guys who MADE the S55 will agree. this is why they play noise in the cars speaker. turbo engines have always suffered from lack of noise.

same thing with the new Ferraris the old N/A V8 and V12 will always sound better than the new turbo ones. its not even up for a debate really.
Because sound is subjective and not everyone agrees with your conclusion. Your subjective opinion is no more "right" than theirs.
