That exhaust pop was kind of cool imo.

edit. sorry for the repost. I usually pay more attention.

DiavelM3 · 09-07-2012, 11:07 AM

Nice find!

I kind of like the exhaust pop too.

bastiN54 · 09-07-2012, 12:38 PM

well i don't like the DCT pop that much but that Vid is awesome. Looks really fast

(i know it comes from the exhaust and not from the DCT in first place)

LemonOne · 09-07-2012, 12:58 PM

Nice Vid!

Hey I sometimes get that similar "pop" from my Eisenmann exhaust in the morning

Remonster · 09-07-2012, 01:18 PM

That thing almost sounds straight piped, those pops were much louder than the ones I've heard coming from any of the other turbo BMWs.

Smokey · 09-07-2012, 01:18 PM

Nice. Looks like it's glued to the asphalt

M-POWERED- · 09-07-2012, 01:22 PM

Blue calipers match heated blue rotors very nice, lol...

I wonder if the 6MT will be more subtle when going through the gears?

flightz71 · 09-07-2012, 01:42 PM

Sounds like a weak s54 sans rasp, hopefully a well designed exhaust can inspire some emotion and melody versus just noise. Best sounding straight 6 imo is still the 2JZ.

W/// · 09-07-2012, 01:47 PM

That car is sounding so much better than the previous videos. I know the sound is probably echoing too, but it seems way louder too.

Canuckles · 09-07-2012, 01:47 PM

you guys sure that wasn't the 6mt, time between shifts seemed longer than a dct.

wonder if the pop's had something to do with that third turbo keeping boost?

DASHOCKER · 09-07-2012, 01:49 PM

sounds sick! you also have to love how bmw vehicles hug the corners too.

BimmersMania · 09-07-2012, 01:51 PM

2014? better call it 2013

+1 The lag time between gears suggested an MT to me.

aajami · 09-07-2012, 01:55 PM

Please please please tune that exhaust note, BMW. It sounds so terrible in these videos.

Also, that rear caliper is mounted REALLY low. I wonder if that was meant to keep the center of gravity as low as possible.

gary88 · 09-07-2012, 02:03 PM

Love the exhaust pop between shifts. Sounds pretty good too.

THE-FN-MAN · 09-07-2012, 02:14 PM

Shows how subjective sound is, because I thought it sounded brutal lol hope its ALOT better in real life

ki__ · 09-07-2012, 02:19 PM

I am starting to like it more and more...

Vintage · 09-07-2012, 02:20 PM

definitely a MT - my e89 DCT shifts much quicker
