What a lovely 'big' sound from a little car!

To be honest that does not sound that good. The 335i sounds alot better. Aswell as the G37, both the 335i and the G sound way better IMO.

Yea I just listened to it on my $10 dollar headphone at work and it doesn't sound that good. Then again cheap youtube quality and cheap headphone one can't expect much.

Is it just the crappy resolution, or is that wheel covered in curbage already?

The recording is not very good. Furthermore, the sound is much better from the rear left corner of the car, near the exhaust. The sound inside the car is superb but I don't like the sound that comes from the bonnet, but I don't really like that sound from almost any car, so I suppose that it is OK in this one.

It looks like it could be some damage to the rim - ouch

And yes, you are all right. The sound quality is not that great, but I sort of took that into account. The sound from the car sounds good to me, but then I guess any I6 will sound great after a diesel :biggrin:

For a stock system, the G35/G37 has one of the finest sounding exhausts ever at WOT. The first time I heard one go by wide open, I almost gave myself whiplash :biggrin: from turning around so quick to see what it was. If the 135 is even close to that, I'll be perfectly happy!

If it isn't...it may be time for a chip, intake & exhaust...:thumbup:
