I'm sure someone soon will post a video of the real deal - exhaust. Its gonna sound raspy like a 1M/M4 exhaust. Sorry to burst your bubble.

Btw... speaking of exhaust sounds... Have any of you guys heard a Mclaren MP4-12c start up cold? It sounds JUST like a N54 with a mean exhaust! I was surprised bc its a Vtt6 and not a straight six.

It doesn't matter if they add an alunimum hood, CF trunk and roof, the car is just heavy for its size to begin with. And even that would have not really saved THAT much weight.

But to not hear the NA V8 in background is a completely different story. And like Bradleyland said, you can clearly hear the S65 induction noise all over the video, which cannot be duplicated on a turboed car. On top of that, you aren't hearing the overruns and pops and farts, which we all know is the new M trademark with these turbo cars Eh, what do I know? It's not like I fap to the S65 sound on a weekly basis when I drive it to work.

The N55T is a very throaty sounding engine with 0 rasp. The S65 is more of a howl. I feel like an idiot trying to explain engine sounds Anyway, let's get back to talk about the M2!

On the E92 & F80 M3, it saves approximately 11 lbs versus a steel roof with no sunroof; on the F82, approximately 13 lbs. Logic would also dictate that had a CF roof been installed on the M2, weight savings would be in the 10s at best.

That's why I wasn't too concerned when they announced that the M2 wasn't gonna have a CF. It looks great, and would pop with LBB, but functionally, it wasn't going to do much.

Although to be fair, the M2's exhaust and overrun sounds better than the F8x. For the record, I'm a sucker for exhaust burbles, pops, and backfires. On my E46 & E90, i always loved when the exhaust is hot and i get a little pop from the exhaust when shifting and during decel. But its gotten to a point where all these manufacturers have gone overboard with the overruns and it ends up sounding artificial.

My E92 is catless, so I get 1 bang/pop when I shift the 6MT. There's absolutely no need to have a constant machine gun sound every time I let off the gas. I blame Jaguar for starting this with their F-Type

I think we will see true weight savings in the CSL - which should get the combined treatment of both our combined posts. Maybe even a higher redline too?
