NEW 2021 M5C exhaust not as loud?

bmait · 02-21-2021, 12:32 PM

Does the exhaust have to "broken in?" I've seen YT video reviews where they rev it and you hear the cracks and burbles but I've driven it all day today (albeit only has 300 miles on it) and haven't heard anything exciting. Just some high redline growling. Just making sure this is normal lol

Make sure you're in Sport + Mode. Exhaust will get better with some time as well.
