The idle growl seems to be nice, but a flyby video from the outside would be good to hear also so we can review properly.

edit: just realized this is not a special product for i8 and is open to other models also
The idle growl is probably the most disappointing thing about the i8 - sounds a bit like a tug boat. At full-chat on a fly-by, it sounds rather nice though, howling like a inline 6. So if they've sorted the idle I def want one but a fly-by would be very interesting - i.e. can the external speaker compete with the real engine/exhaust noise?
