Now weirdly, it seems that the resonance and pops are more noticeable with the windows UP than down. Like they made the sound reverberate through the chassis and decreased it on the outside.

Overall, not terribly displeased by the changes.
Thanks for providing these impressions. It's reassuring that they haven't annihilated the exhaust note, despite the mounting pressure of noise regulation interventions; and from what you say, it seems like the update is now pumping more sound into the cabin, artificially or otherwise! In short, could be (very much) worse.
