I was thinking the same---but it seems to happen when shifting---it has a dual clutch tranny, so it could be the tranny blipping the throttle on shifts, Plus the fact that the car has a subdued engine note due to the TT V8, and it was stated that it would sound like a racing 4 cylinder.

Sounds like torque management, the pcm cuts power during a shift to save the trans and it can often sound like that.

Really shitty, though professionally shot video.  I have a feeling that the V10 M5 will end up being more impressive than this.  There's something abouta  NA V10 that a turbo might not replicate.  I'm curious to see comparisons by the motoring press.

And I'll raise you the M6 Gran Coupe (meant to compete against the CLS---4 door coupe), which will be the top M line

apparently the M5 does 7:55 on the 'Ring, don't know what the CLS AmG does,
but the C63 Amg Black Series is a beast...

shit, it's either you're a fan of BMW or Benz, cause each of these cars go head to head and push the envelope on performances all the time.........I love the M series as much as AMG. it comes down to which one you like......

95% of the cars Mercedes make are fugly. You'll probably be enjoying the driving experience at the wheel, but everyone you pass is saying hello to their breakfast as you drive by in your carbunkle of an automobile.

I would say this applies to BMW as well.  Most of their cars are plain boring to me.
Wait for it....
