I don't like it either in that clip. With the E9x M3 the exhaust note is not superb compared to exhaust mods - but I think most of the sound is coming from that rumbling V8. I wonder how much the engine note contributes to the sound of the new M3/M4 compared to exhaust. |

Well it doesn't sound as good as S65 but that it is to be expected.
It does sound good enough for me to buy it blindly though...a little exhaust should cure any inkling for a louder/different tone. |

Not a popular thought, but I got to say, the sound has promise. I think they're improving it little by little, and this one while sounding like a lawnmower or a bike, I can see where they're going. Hopefully the end result will be good. It will never be a V8 rumble, but if they can manage a sonic engineered sound like a GT3, fine by me...

I will wait until the first time I hit 7600 rpm in this car before I judge it's sound and I hope I'm not disappointed.

Still don't like the "noise" at all. Sounds like one of those civics with the huge obnoxious mufflers. I've driven and heard the same from the M5's and the sound just kills the show.

They both look great. Will be a hard decision on which one to get next.
