Ideally standing outside at the front of the car with the hood open so you can really hear it, pretty good idea to ask for that just to make sure its being advertised honestly.
Here is the rattle while revving:

Can't find a video of the start up sound on a double vanos 6 cylinder, but mine made a similar clattering sound. What I remember being the most noisy was coming off the throttle at low rpms, or shutting the motor down. I was amazed after the repair with just how drama-free turning the motor off became. Purring 6 cylinder one second, dead silence the next.
Feel free to forward the video to me for BMW-nerd review. jmklimchuk at gmail dot com.
