I would hope the M4 sounds more aggressive.

I also dont understand how there are always lots of "nice" replies to a lot of this stuff here. Almost think (i know its not true but) BMW has got some bots posting here. I dont see how anyone would like this stuff over how the current or the old E46 M3 sounds.

Why do they have to add anything artificial to the sound? Is the original sound THAT bad and boring?
I agree the E46/E9x M3 sound much better, they're V8s. M3 + aftermarket X pipes = awesome. I didn't think the 'burble' was artificial, its backpressure isn't it? I'm biased because I've always like the sound of turbo cars especially inline-6 turbo. It's more refined, the M3 V8 variant sounds as it should: a beast.
