I didn't take any pictures of the E91 as it looked as a normal production one. It was only the noise from it that sounded not that normal and it's a little hard to catch with the camera...

The noise from teh E91 was not as sporty and special as the M5, but it was a very sporty and high rev sound.

If it was not a scaled down M5 motor as a V8, then it was a very tuned R6. It was clearly speaking pwerformance!

Maybe, it was not having the bobbeling sound that turbos normally have. But with a tuned exhaust it could have been the bi-turbo R6.

It would not be the first time BMW takes the car to the sound designer for the perfect sound, so why not!
