Anyway... has the M2C done anything to change the way it sounded in my F80? None to test drive close. I ask because of the comments above saying it sounds as good as the N55. If not its OG M2 for me.
I haven't owned an F80, but I do think the M2c sounds a little better. But it's still not what I would consider a particularly good sounding car. After owning it a year, i'd say the sound doesn't bother me, but if you're looking for a car that makes you smile just from how it sounds, look elsewhere. The N55 does actually sound good, but personally I feel like if sound is THAT important, you might want to explore American options with a V8.
