The throttle is programmed to do that in the 35i, but (they tell me at BMW) not to do it in the 30i auto.

Just a though...
The 30i does burble nicely, but only in the sport mode, and the Eisenmann exhaust doesn't hurt either. But after the software refresh last year it took about a week for the farts to return.
