Instead of ASD or other synthetic sounds, I wonder why BMW and other brands do not simply try to find a way to amplify the exhaust sound and bring it inside the cabin....for me just putting the seats down made already a big difference when it comes to driving experience.
Wouldn’t opening the windows accomplish the same thing?
I’m finding BMW owners different. In all the years that I have been on different forums. I don’t think I have ever seen anyone ask things like “where do I put my phone?” Or “I can’t figure out how to adjust my seat so I’m comfortable? I just find it different. I understand things like “I want to mount the phone on the dash vents, can anyone suggest a mount?”
