I am on mile 1,500 of my 2021 M340i and I am loving it. What a fun car to drive and the power is absolutely underreported. I live in Denver so the air is thinner up here but you can still feel the necessary growl when needed. I test drove both the C43 and the M340i before I bought and although the gurgles and pops of the Merc were a little better I made the right choice in purchasing the BMW. Great review guys - definitely know your stuff!

My friend has been working at a BMW dealer for years now, and he's been very consistent in his belief that the M340i (both F80 and G20 generations) is among the best, if not the best, all-around cars that BMW makes. The latest 40i motor is clearly past 400/400 HP/TQ at the crank, if not getting close to the 450/450 range...a B58 M40i-powered car is basically running around with the equivalent to a C6 or C7 Corvette V8. It's really nutty performance for a regular production 3-series.

Why the hell does BMW charge for Apple CarPlay when just about every other car on the market with an infotainment comes with it standard with no subscription? I hate that shit. That makes me not want to buy this car for that very reason. If you’re spending $60k plus you should at least get things like that standard.

So this is my 7th! BMW, including an M (I refer to that period as my high-maintenance significant other phase) and I have to tell you, this is my favorite one ever. Great review. I'll just differ on a couple of points...for a dedicated BMW driver, we don't want the looks to change much, and we don't want it blinged out. I buy these because they're mostly sleepers. Also the gauges aren't that bad. Just reprogram the center panels for the sport displays if they make you happy :). The interior now feels more high-end over all. But it's ALL about the driver and the drive here. And this car is the perfect poised partner when you need that, and the naughty and racy one when you need that.

I have a 2018 S4. Love it. Havent driven the C43 or the M340. I really like both of those as well. Would be a REALLY tough choice for me between the C43 or M340. I think I would go C43 because I like the interior a lot better. Their 12 inch display and you can option those awesome AMG Performance seats in it which look amazing.

I own this car and test drove the c43 amg before deciding on the m340i. Could not be happier with my decision. I wanted to like the mercedes but it just wasn’t as much fun driving it around violently on demand. It was too refined even in sport mode and couldn’t even tell I was going fast. The bmw definitely makes you smile more when you punch it hard around corners or straights. The only thing that’s not perfect is the wireless apple CarPlay. Music every now and then lags for half a second. I wish it was just wired and then this car would be absolutely complete. I have the Harmon kardon system as well and it’s just ok for being the “premium” sound system. Lease is up in 2023 and I’ve already decided to get the m550i with the bowers and Wilkins system which is like 10x better than the hk.

@@snakeeyes9246 generally spoken your statement is just wrong. Due to higher weight and drag of awd systems you need a certain minimum power for the awd to be faster. Depending on comparing between fwd-awd or rwd-awd this minimum power figure can be somewere between 200-400hp, also depending on tires and entire weight of the car.

Those are big gains and the performance should be even better with quicker acceleration times. Can’t wait to see what it can do when it hits North America.
