Anyone know if 1ers have the "symposer"? A quick google search shows the 2 series has it, and it changes depending on what mode the car is in, i.e. Sport mode is louder.

I didn't realize we had a mechanical piece piping sounds into the cabin, also.

I can't find it right now, but I saw a video where someone replaced the sound file with a Lamborghini sound in a more pedestrian car. Pretty funny.

N55 does not, or at least not that I've been able to find.
