Yep, on cold start only the left exhaust outlet is open, once the exhaust has warmed up both sides are open.
Dual exhaust not connected to back box

Must sound ace on a 120d after both opened

Hilariously a 120d is about as quick as that amazing sports car that is the Toyota GT86

I'm talking about M135i...120d only has one exhaust outlet, but a twin pipe exit.

Hilariously a 120d is about as fun as getting locked in a room with hungry alligators

And I don't see a 120d that will hit 60 in 6.4 sec?
You mean 7.6 seconds. So my mistake, the 120d is actually materially quicker at 7 seconds.

Manufacturers figures only please, not pub talk from owners clubs.
Only with the low grip OEM tyres. Look at the US figures.

Its a petrol vrs a diesel. For a start the diesel doesn't even pass as a car and secondly diesels are always quick 0-60 but after that they have no top end and most petrol engined cars will win.
It is a quite well balanced car and really great fun to drive.
I had a type r and that was 0-60 in 6.6 seconds. Not the fastest car in the world but it felt so quick and aggressive. It encouraged you to drive fast where as diesels are just so... Dull
This is a fair point really.
Yep, the MX-5 is the same. On a track both are quick because they can keep the momentum in the corners. That is what makes things fast not 0-60 stats.
You can have loads more HP but at the end of a straight the gap is only going to be a second, probably less.
