The sound is too flat. Reminds me of how the 911TT sounds in that sense. The sound doesn't have enough drama to it.

I actually prefer the F80's more dramatic sound to this. You can easily tell this engine is not as unique as the S55 as it sounds like a tuned N55 (which it is) that could have been on any 335i, M235i, 435i, etc...

They've compensated for a real exhaust sound with all these random cracks and burbles but under load it sounds very unexciting. I like the deep, low idle but this engine's sound isn't fooling me.
