Vinceng Turbocharged January 11, 2018 Share January 11, 2018 530lux bro...and PML specs are lousy....so I went for PI. Full specs..... After I realised what crap service pml gives, and I have R2d as my sole contact for complex issues, bye bye pml oh, mine is MBM warranty. Good too yes, the look grows in the muscular view. the overall drive is excellent.... I've seen several PI Bemmers go up in flames. Are PI Beemers tropicalised to suit our climate? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstuff 4th Gear January 11, 2018 Share January 11, 2018 I didn't like the exhaust sound of the 3.3L when I went for the "driven test run" at the launch event. This YouTube reviewer also made the same point: The OMV so high for 2.0? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps the cars that went up in flames had illegal modifications or electrical overload with ICE, and/or inferior quality China made LED bulbs from TaoBao with wrong voltage. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This YouTube reviewer also made the same point: The OMV figures were mentioned to me by 2 different SEs I approached at the launch event. true. but most new V6 high capacity cars that are not proper "sports cars" sound tame anyway. case in point, my neighbour's Macan S, the Bentayga that i saw.. all sound very tame although still distinct. hopefully there will be aftermarket exhaust options to bring out the growl.. this is another of my favourite videos.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sBR_vEVbEPw Perhaps the cars that went up in flames had illegal modifications or electrical overload with ICE, and/or inferior quality China made LED bulbs from TaoBao with wrong voltage. exactly my friend. so whether it's PI or AD doesn't matter at all.
