Same as the M5 comp. you could go to the dealer tomorrow and listen to one
Though you might be interested in this, according to this article the M8 sound is different
"Plus, it makes a great noise. It sounds quite different to the M5, which uses the same engine in a different state of tune and with the unusual equal-length exhaust manifold that makes it sound a bit like it has a flat-plane crank"

That is the N63 V8 found in the M850i. & to me that sounds better than the Normal ///M S63 V8 engine found in the M5 & M8. There are a few videos of the M8 comp reving and I can tell you it sounds exactly the same as a M5 competition
Love the car but not the exhaust notes, especially the crackling in sport mode. I'll look into options for aftermarket exhausts once I have the car.
Thanks for your help.
