The problem w/ the vids is HORRIBLE wind noise.The wind has been blowing around here at 25MPH or more for the last couple of wks.I'm going to try and edit the wind noise out.The exhaust note is "NASCAR "like.Deep loud V8 roar.The exhaust note,to me,sounds louder and deeper than the V8 X5.You will not mistake the 35i for the 50i based on the exhaust note.I'm trying to figure out a fix for the wind noise.It's always going to be a problem anywhere around the Performance Center,it's very open like an airport.Thanks.

Thanks Palbay. I saw that video and i guess this sort of experiences better be real and really hard to transfer into video. To me the V8TT is a must but the waiting isn't my only problem. By the time the V8TT reaches here, the new 7er will be launched also which affect my current car resale value. I thought of selling the car now and buy a temporary car till my new car arrives but that didn't work for many reasons. Anyway we''ll see how it goes. My lady is begging me to wait for V8TT also
