996AD:

True . And a good example M4 M3 they're V6 turbo but they sound rally  good. I don't like louder exhausts, but a good sound is enough at least.

You are kidding, right? The 991.2 PSE sounds way better. Actually, the current M4/M3 models are the best example of how an exhaust should NOT sound. Btw: BMW uses the HiFi speakers for enhancing the sound in the interior. Try to listen to the M4/M3 from the outside. Even the performance exhaust sounds crappy, very similar to the Macan Turbo PSE and very generic.

McLaren has similar generic sounds but they sound better than M4/M3 (probably due to the V8 engine).

Best Turbo sounds so far on modern cars: Ferrari 488 and maybe the 675LT.

The question is: How much longer can car manufacturers fool certification authorities. Sound emissions levels are getting stricter and stricter and especially with turbo charged cars, it is pretty difficult to achieve a nice sound without getting them too loud.
