Also, German magazine auto motor und sport has uploaded a sound file of the M2 revving on Soundcloud.

The flatulence is still a bit much but its an overall improvement in sound over the F8x.

It has a very minute amount of bass in the sound, which is very welcomed.

Swagon, excellent find sir!

Is it me or does the M2 sound a helluva lot better than the M3/4???? Seriously. Sounds great. Can't they do that for the M3/4?

Sounds like a N55 with the M Performance exhaust with slightly more bassy note which is a good thing. Sounds way better than the M3/M4 honestly.

Does sound good. Will the M2 have the engine sound played through the speakers?

Very very similar to the N55, which is an excellent place to start. Sounds fantastic, and a world ahead of the S55 which somehow sounds like a Pontiac 3800 V6.
