2024 BMW m340i Do Not BUY It LOADED, WHY :All Specs & Test Drive
Рет қаралды 51,538
Күн бұрынIn this full #review I will explain all the specs of the 2024 #BMW #m340i sedan then take it for a test drive. The m340i sedan has a twin-scrolled turbocharge inline 6 which gets a 0-60 at 4.4 seconds but they still have quirks which will bring me to my pros and cons.

@alexanderperry7821 7 ай бұрын
a few thoughts: The LCI looks best in black or a dark colour in general, the gloss black defuser and other accents don't look amazing so anything to take attention away from them is good. I understand the thinking in not loading one up with options because then you're approaching M3 territory, but personally for me, I don't want the rough ride or looks of an M3. I want a very sporty daily driver/exec sedan that is also comfortable for long trips. I need adaptive cruise, wireless charging, and want full leather. I would go M3 if I could only have 1 car for myself (with my wife driving a family crossover), but I the Giulia QV is a much more unique, better looking and better driving car. I'm looking at used examples for a summer car, and will likely lease a loaded M340i for all year round. That or a used M550i.

Exactly, it's an apples to orange comparison . I recently picked up my custom order fully loaded xDrive m340i that will be my daily driver at $68k. When I was building out a similar spec for a xDrive M3 comp, it was hitting close to $100k. Sure I could have a bare bones M3 closer to the price I paid for the m340i but then I'm missing out all those quality of life improvements for my daily driver. I get why some people would choose the M3 over the m340i, but that decision is going to depend on the person and what they value. For me the already damn good performance of the m340i along with everything I can load it up with for the price made it a no brainer. Plus I'm lucky enough to have my local dealer install a stage 1 CarBahn tune to push it towards 450hp while keeping it under warranty as well.

@0ut1awed 5 ай бұрын
@@eged9509 It's a dealer by dealer basis. Apparently from what I can tell it's a rarity for dealers to do this but luckily mine does. It's a piggyback tune with CarBahn. My dealer actually works pretty close with them apparently as my service contact at the dealership travelled out of state to CarhBahn HQ these last few weeks to get updated training on the '24 models. Getting it installed next week. It doesn't come without those lovely dealership fees however, as it's costing me $2k, with $1k of it being a fee to retain warranty... Still worth in my opinion given I'm pushing hp/torque up 100 (new numbers I was quoted after the contact just gone done working with CarBahn are 475hp, 495ft/lb) while keeping warranty on my brand new '24 m340.

I think G70 3.3t is still a better buy if you don't care about the badge. It's cheaper and it's fully loaded. Plus you get 4 brembo calipers on all 4 wheels which is rare on the cars in this segment on top of that you'll gear heated rear seats heated steering wheel which is optional and extra on bimmer. M340I is a great car tho don't get me wrong, it's just if you don't care about the badge want to get best value for money Gen is the way to go, but if you're BMW fan and want something more powerful and don't mind paying more than that's your choice

Personally, if I was considering the M340i I would just save up and get the M3 Comp xDrive. A reasonably loaded M3 can reach north of 95k but I think it's worth it to get an actual M Car rather the M variant, especially if you're looking for the best driving dynamics. I might also consider the C 43 AMG over the M340i, it's a very capable car that's been dismissed just because MB shifted to a 4 cylinder in the new models, it's a great car.
