when standing from outside is the 645i coupe quite a bit lounder than the 645i cabrio or is it just me then (when you rev them)?
cant wait for soft close doors to become available, then ill look into ordering a 650
Why not just pay someone to close the doors for you?

Well there is a difference - that's why one is the 645 and the other a 650. 645 - 4.4L @ 325 HP and 650 - 4.8L @ 360HP (all US spec).

Exhaust probably tuned different, but don't know.

A friend bought a 645 last year. I went for the test drives with him and also when he drove the DB9, more expensive but makes mincemeat of the 645. He ultimately went the less costly and more conservative route. I have driven it a few times since and can't say I am that impressed. It does everything well and nothing brilliantly. Also for such a big car that claims to be a four seater the interior is better suited to successful jockeys and their 4 year old children than those of us of above average stature.

hmmm, who are you gonna believe, someone who "heard" it once at a dealer for a second, without reference of course, or someone who's had both of them together, next to each other running, and happens to own one....there is no discernable audible difference in the exhaust sounds at idle, he just probably doesnt realize how loud the 645 is too, but if it makes you happy to think its louder, then cheers!

i believe my ears i have listened to both next to each other like yourself . 645ci cabrio and a 650i coupe. And the 650i sounds much better imo... same as the x5 4.6is and 4.8is... just a different note , much deeper and more presence
