Constant 50mph - 76 dBA
Constant 70mph - 80 dBA

2016 BMW M2 interior noise

Idle - 51 dBA
Full throttle - 89 dBA
70mph cruising - 72 dBA
Holy cow!! The 1M is really loud for a 70mph cruise. Odd it is quieter on hard acceleration and louder at cruising speed. 80dBA at a 70mph cruise would drive me bonkers on a long road trip.
