And don't expect much to happen beyond 4500 RPM. It will keep pulling, but there is no extra push at the top. It feels almost like it fades away a bit before it hits the limiter.
It maybe does, but I'm not sure what BMW have done to make it sound like it does.
It doesn't sound like a 6 cylinder but lets just say it's sounds better than I expected for what it is.

In regards to the power it feels more even throughout the Rev range, I had before this a 4 cylinder 116i and the power only started to hit around 3000 RPM. Where as this one you don't feel any lunges as such, it appears the power is more evenly distributed from the lower to the higher revs. Took a bit of getting used to actually but finally getting there.
