With Tesla it's like heaven without your best buddies

On another note!

Oh yeah
Then I must ask!
How does it compare to your other exotics because you have one heck of an experience with so many cars not barring exotics

I find it a lot better than Comp Pacakge exhaust

Thanks

Its a great sound- compared to others its on its own with tone and aural pleasure but I do like the Lambo and others because not two are alike. I wish wish wish that the MPE was a bit louder. I already have a tune that opens up the cold start further and also allows for overrun burbles and pops but the exhaust in WOT would be amazing with 15% more sound- maybe 20%

I just got a C63S coupe and that exhaust is aggressive and carrys a big roar while the Lambo with the race exhaust is a more loud version of the Akra I guess. The GTS mirrors the C63S. My Turbo S has the Kline catless its all by itself with a LeMans style racing roar = higher pitch but alot of decibels too.

Congratulations! I felt exactly the same way when I drove a 90D and the P100D. Nothing like hearing an exhaust note! All the tech on a Tesla still can't take me away from the BMW family.

Got the X P100D last week, so far I am loving it. Instant response is awesome and it's a spectacular city driving machine. Haven't met any competition in terms of stoplight to stoplight drag race.

But of course, it still has some faults. A piece of plastic from the trunk came off, front door and falcon wing door not exactly aligned (a well known problem), air con will go warm and then back to cold again. And the range is terrible if you drive like you stole it (worse than M5, the way I drove it, 90% charged won't last over 250km).

And oh yeah, it made my X5M seemed like a lightweight. Luckily at least the center of gravity is low......

Enjoy 😉
I miss my Tesla no doubt but won't trade my M5 for it for sure!
Love my M5 x 3 times
And I am positive will be a fourth so seeing how ugly the new one!!
