I stepped on it, and...
..that exhaust note was one of the most amazing sounds I've ever heard. 06 330i, doing 70+ on the highway, I smashed the gas. I know, I know, probably should have experienced this a long time ago given I've had the car for 5 months. But wow, didn't know all that composure could come alive!
Carry on. LOL |

Hate to be the one but the NA 6cyl sound to me is much better than that of the turbo 6. Don't get me wrong, the turbo 6 does have a very aggressive growl but the NA 6 just sounds amazing.
I have both, and have heard both with the performance exhaust so I know how they sound.

5/7 perfect score. But seriously smash the gas from a dead stop. You'll enjoy it.

Come-on, can't a guy enjoy his new to him used car. IN 10 more years post like this will be cherished since most BMW's will be uninspiring 4 cylinder turbos or hybrids.
How many more years before even the 340i becomes a 4 cylinder?... and only the larger M6 gets the I6. Probably not too long. Hopefully, they just drop the displacement a little first and do some weight reduction. |

But yeah hope they aren't all didy quiet boring engines. The musical note of electrics isn't inspiring.

Hey, with my wimpy 325i I get to hear that wonderful song for a lot longer, since it takes all afternoon to go from 60-80mph.
With the 335i, it would be over so quick.... or at least that's what she said. |

Upgrade your car man. My 325i is faster then my brothers 330i. Same outcome even when we switch cars.

I own a 325xi and I must say the sound of it doesn't quite get to me... even the ones i have heard with exhaust systems... may just be my opinion. M3's do sound amazing.
