+1 trillion. I have no issue with it going back to I6 but it doesn't sound anywhere near as good as an E46. That low RPM mucus gargle noise, the ass farts (which should be more poppy than sharty), it all just sounds like they're trying to coax out the low end waaaay too much. It's an I6 for effs sake and should not be difficult to make sound racey, not ricey! I'd take an STi note over this thing so far. Obviously need to hear a production model in person some day but right now, ick.

I don't have to have a V8 sound, but I want a smooth, fine tuned, motorsports tone which is very doable.
