The sounds of BMW M cars. 1972 - 2012.

Thanks for posting. I have two comments; one serious and one kidding...
1) What, no E39 M5? 2) My F30 328 sounds as good as any of these M cars, especially when you turn the HK volume up! |

wow, awesome video. two observations:
1. - the sounds of M88/1, S85, and S65 are just absolutely stunning. STUNNING. 2. - that video makes the E30 (EVO3 in this case) look quiet. Anyone who has driven an E30 M3 will tell you it is quite the opposite when you're in the car. S14 is one noisy, buzzy little motor. |

They should have had the shoe in there, but I guess they had that engine in the CSL. Of course the S62 should have been shown also |

This was great, it's always good to see from where you've come and how much progress has been made. Makes me wonder in 20 or 40 years from now what that video will look like.

Sweet film. But, the M cars in absence is glaring.
The E39 M5 and its legendary S62 V8 didn't make in, but they actually have the E82 1M prominently shown is just bizarre to me! I will say the tracking shot of the E46 M3 CSL through the turn with the light blue "Pure Passion" billboard in the complete shot, and then the billboard fades away as the car leaves the turn is just fantastic. |

S54 and S65/85 - among the best for M cars.

The 2002 Turbo should have been in that video more than anything else...was hoping to see it. That E9 CSL is so badass.... |

S8/65 was just perfect. S54 is a very close second. Amazing when you look what what we have today and how they need to add fake sound to mimic the old ways.
