Thanks!

I have double paned glass so it's muted on the inside, but you can absolutely hear the growl and burbles on acceleration. I haven't WOT'ed it yet (literally picked it up yesterday w/10 miles on it), but here's a breakdown so far:

Comfort mode: No engine noise cruising, muted on accel, no pops that I can hear.
Auto: No engine noise cruising, nice growl and some pops on accel, shifts are smooth.
RS2 (everything on max, traction control "off"): Good low growl, shifts hit you right in the spine with a nice thooompf, lots of pops and burbles.

I need to take this through a couple tunnels to see how loud it is since my kids are not tall enough to rev it for me and my wife will roll her eyes at me if I ask her.
