Uh, not quite. The new M5 has 'Active Sound', but it isn't piping in 'fake sounds'. It's the actual noise the engine is making, being played into the cabin. It's not like if they made a Prius that played a V8 sound track. <-- Watch, it's actually kind of neat.

That said, I can barely tell the difference between Active Sound on or off, if this clip is accurate.
