my favorite part of waking up....

...is pressing that engine start button and listening to the engine roar to life!

Also fun is when I get to my parking garage very early in the morning, I crack the windows and turn down the radio as I zip up the floors to my space, listening to the exhaust in first gear reverberate off the concrete walls.....glorious!

2011 135i  [9.20]
Same with me, but I love it pretty much anytime I'm in my car, lol. I'm pretty sure my neighbors hate me, and I don't think that my exhaust is all that loud.

Rolling around my neighborhood with my turbo spooling up and down gradually as I'm doing 10mph with the windows down, exhaust burbling on overruns. It's all about the simple things I enjoy

It's the smell of the exhaust.....I have no idea why...or how come....but our 135s...have a distinct perfume.

I love the sound between shifts of the DCT with the Sport button on while accelerating briskly. Hard to describe but sounds kinda like when you teach a kid to sound out letters when they are learning to read, and you're teaching them the "P" sound. Puh, but loud and aggressive. Or like the sound when you spit. Then again, maybe it's just me.....

I rarely drive before lunch. Can't say I've experienced this yet.
