You have to look at:
1. Air Density (colder air = denser air = more oxygen available for combustion) End result is ECU runs more timing and car makes more power. The difference between very cold and very got can be a significant amount of horsepower. |
This, plays into the same thing with flying you get better power, lift and bite out of the prop due to the denser air.
No doubt the M loves the cold air and the sound is just terrific. My bike with the Akra on it sounds menacing as well, but the tires that I have on it don't like the cold weather so much...
