Yes, I would love to hear it idle past those 30-35 seconds to see if it simply quiets down to almost nothing like our 235's do...or did in my case.
Vids stopped at near those 30 second levels. The "open road" sounds though, did redeem things a bit more. |

Could also be exaggerated by the DCT. Last edited by swilliams; 01-25-2016 at 07:00 PM.. |

Lordy quit stinking up this thread that holds beautiful sounds with that S55 exhaust nonsense. Ugh that engine just sounds SO bad. Great car, 100% ruined by the sound.

It sounds very good but it doesn't sound special. It sounds good in the same way that a N54/55 sound with PE.

just a smooth, roaring inline 6....on the quieter side stock, but with beautiful tone. I do think the farty thing is really a part of the dual clutch setups though....which doesn't pertain to the 1M |

Good to know it's a DCT thing. I'm not expecting miracles overall because almost every turbo engine lacks the higher frequencies and harmonics of the NA versions. N54 and N55 don't sound bad but they do not sound anywhere near as good as S54 (Z4M stock exhaust - low rasp) or Porsche 9A1 if we're comparing 6 cylinder engines.

It's stock. Because my friend has also heard what the M-PE sounds like on the M2. He just has not had the chance to video it = Yet!
