I'm sure there's some Apples and Oranges to this, but take it for what it's worth. My wife has a 2019 X3 M40i, I assume it's an Msport exhaust as well. Her car is VERY loud on start up, and has lots of pops and crackles during operation in SPORT mode.

I have a 2020 X6 M50i. It is also loud on start up. They sound NOTHING alike. My car has very little pop and crackle during normal operation.

Her M40 exhaust is much "busier" than my M50 exhaust during operation, both in SPORT mode. My M50 sounds generally better, but that's subjective.

I've read that they toned things down in 2020 around the exhaust sounds on other threads.
