Even in neutral when you apply a degree of downforce to the loud pedal you can get a quite violent crack (love it), however it only happens sometimes. Try this usually when reversing into my garage which then amplifies the sound but i can work out why it only happens every now & again?
I agree they do sound awesome from the outside, especially in Paris going through Tunnels biggrinbounce

29 degrees and I was happily driving rather sedately past Heathrow this afternoon with my windows down enjoying the warm weather when a new M6 GC pulled up alongside and then gave it some beans.

Feck me yikes

I do hope my F10 sounds like that, bloody amazing as he pulled away and I never had any idea just how good they sound.

It was also a lovely blue and looked absolutely bloody brilliant yes
It was a Comp Pack exhaust system you heard for sure

Does the standard M5 have the same exhaust as the comp pac?

Nope it does not. I will test my new M6 GC CP in september and see just how loud it really is.;)

Slightly off topic, but do the E63 M6's have a different exhaust as standard to the E60 M5? I'm fairly sure mine is louder than the equivilent M5, not sure if this is also replicated on the new F10/F13 variants.
