I have a M2 on order, I have optioned the 2NH so there is a slight delay with the delivery.

For those who are lucky enough to have taken delivery already can we confirm if the particulate filter is installed in AU delivered vehicle?

Weird. My car is so quiet unless WOT. Even my wife was disappointed how quiet it is. How many KMs have you done? Maybe I need to run it in more.

Same here. On idle super Prius quiet unless you give it some beans. This is with the valve set to open permanently.

I wouldn't say it is loud, but in sports plus with the valves open it has a good note, reasonable volume and a decent amount of burble when you give it a bit (I am still in the run in period so trying not to go above 5k).

But agree it could be louder, hence I can't wait until the AA mid-pipe comes out. My comment was more I like the sound track rather than the volume if that makes sense. Most people complain about the sound of the S55, but I am one of the few that like it.

I would add the thing is silent when in efficient mode.

Sometimes it does it’s own thing. I drove through a car park the other day at about 3 km/h with a deep burble. Then at other times it is near silent. Haven’t figured that bit yet. Just makes up its own mind regardless of mode.

It is always musical magnificence when you give it a blast and flick through the gears with the DCT. Like playing power chords whilst charging at the horizon. It is horribly addictive. God help me when I can rev to 7k plus.

You should try it in a real manual

But I know what you mean sometimes it is louder than others.
