Captured at the 2014 Long Beach Grand Prix, this is the BMW M4. Watch the video, and see what you think of that exhaust note.

Before we get onto the sound, though, here are some vital statistics: the M4 has a 431bhp 3.0-litre twin-turbo straight-six engine that'll take it from 0-62mph in 4.1sec.

Impressive numbers, but it just sounds a little bit... rubbish. That's the view of one onlooker, who shouts "it sounds like my Prius!" And the YouTube commenters haven't been much nicer. Here's a collection of our favourite comments so far:

Let us know what you think: angry straight-six monster or like a wasp buzzing in your ear?
