Yes, it is true. A friend of mine has one. It's kind of cool, but silly at the
same time.

I have heard of these as add-ons using FM modulators and stuff. You can have
one too for 38 bucks plus shipping.
I don't even know what to say... ;)

A Florida newspaper is quoting Automobile Magazine that the 2013 BMW M5 has
a
"recorded' exhaust sound. BMW claims buyers expect to buy a quiet car when
they spend $100K , but they also want to hear the sound of the twin turbo
V8.
The solution....BMW has the car "lip-synch"....that is, when you hit the
throttle in this car you get the recorded rumble of a hot V8 through the
radio
speakers. And I thought BMW buyers were "car guys", "purist".
I guess the sound is great to impress the women in the car. Just make sure
she's inside. You can speculate that the Asian manufacturers will steal this
idea and you will see it appear in their hot cars. Can't you see it now,
stick in a 4 cylinder and get the roar of a V8......or a V10 if you are
willing to pay for that option. LOL Mark
