The new cars just burble a lot. Which is nice.. but an E39 with a nice exhaust or straight pipped is KING.

Well said!
Hopefully there will be an aftermarket system that will open up the tone

I'm sure the mad geniuses can whip something up for us.

So tired of the hollow burble sound. AMG does it best. Can't we just get a nice sounding car without trying to sound like something else?

Refer to the M760 video for stock exhaust tones.

That's not saying much. My baby nephew farting and crapping himself in his diaper sounds magical compared to this.

I don't get how BMW had all this time to replicate the noises emitted by MB V8's, and yet still couldn't come up with a satisfying sound.

This new M5 is just the F10 M5 with an automatic transmission instead of a DCT, has AWD capabilities, and that's it. It's so sad that we've gotta spend thousands of dollars to get a decent sound out of our M cars.

where did i say M cars sound like crap? some are crap like the beloved e46 m3, which made me wonder why so many people hate the f8x exhaust

other M cars have sounded okay, but compared to the competition they have always been "weak". you can't argue this.
