I just can't open the file. It dowload itself as 650.m3u and nor winamp or WMP can play this file. ?????
I had a problem with the file name as well--rename it wth a .mp3 suffix.

it worked like you said. thanks

IMHO the sound is not that great. Nothing like 545i, 530i or M5, it is more like some old US muscle car
maybe it is just because of how the sound file was made, sounds like the car is on dino and the microphone somewhere near the egnine not near by the exhaust

Seems to have a lower, more throaty pitch than my 645. Have to say I like mine better, but sure would like the horses and torque of the 4.8L engine
