speaker under passenger footwell?
so i was cleaning the beast today, and i noticed that there is a speaker under the steering column right next to the footwell light on the driver side. i have the logic 7 premium sound but a new discovery for me. but its definitely a speaker though i could hear the tones coming out of it

Maybe a passive radiator channeling the engine sounds back into the cabin? I know of no better sound system than a BMW internal combustion engine!

You made a funny but I think Logpak23 missed it.

I'm sure it is a speaker but it really doesn't matter since the engine makes the only sound worth listening to.

Sadly, not until this summer - lease is up in August, probably get the beast in July. Considering a Euro delivery.
