Sound pumped in to enhance the engine/exhaust is a bit disingenuous to my experience. I wish BMW would include an active sound "OFF" option (the best we get on G42 is "reduced"). Will ideally code it out once Bimmer Code releases our platform. In the end, I can live with the gauge cluster (yes I do have issues with the aesthetics and loss of dedicated climate controls), with ID8 (remember the sheer vitriol when iDrive was launched?) as long as I'm grinning ear to ear after making a brisk run down a back road. Guess that's all the emotional impact I need...
