That unnecessary increased steering ratio was specifically engineered for your average BMW driver to cut in front of other drivers on the road with no turn signals significantly faster. What an amazing feature, truly a game changer

Mark, Jack & Scott…thank you so much for all your efforts. I’m here in SoCal in the old mobile home, putting together IKEA dressers, listening to you guys and smiling. I feel like you dudes are my long lost friends. The Cadillac Blackwing review is playing in the background right now, you guys are talking like we’d all hope good friendly and sane folks would talk while blasting around a track in an unfamiliar car…please don’t ever change. I hope to meet y’all some day and say thanks for staying such down dudes in person. I’m fifty, rock an old base 986 (yeah, PCA autoX here and there when I don’t have to work of a Sunday-- maybe you’ll read this, who knows--I’ll be “the mobile home guy with the Boxster”), and you two have helped me reset to sanity during a pretty hard Winter. Lots of love to you guys. And to everyone else reading along here down at 600 in the responses. What a great team you’ve made amongst yourselves. Thank you for sharing the energy, it matters so much sometimes…

I have grown to love the new iDrive and would agree it is the best current system (and I rent many other types of vehicles and it makes my other vehicle system seem like BlackBerry or Palm Treo). One of the things that is my favorite is the speed at which it is available. Sometimes I’m on my phone and I open the door and as soon as plunk my ass down in the seat the call is already on Bluetooth and I’ve not even pressed the start button. I’ve got to drive two blocks before other systems boot!

I drive a 12 year old (had since new) BMW 135i coupe (manual) and test drove this new 240i a couple of days ago. I really like the interior and features and wanted to love the way it drove , however, driving this car I felt completely disconnected and it just confirmed how great my 135 is.

If they made a car to fit into the center of a Venn diagram where performance, practicality and luxury intersect, then this would be the result. I say ‘if’ but we all know that’s exactly what they did. This car, for me, is the perfect daily driver for high performance fun, year round, in New England, which is exactly why my fully loaded one arrives in four weeks. Meanwhile, for my rear drive, purer driving thrills, ultimately, I’d like a 718, or maybe even a Miata. BMW aren’t stupid. This car perfectly fits it’s brief.

I had a chance to drive the Supra and 23' M240i back to back, and 100% Supra is no where as refined as the M240i -Extremely polished experience. It might be a heaver car but you can't feel it. I was neck and Neck with a Modified G8! Flat Out! Supra is just a track car; you can't see out of it, it has huge A-pillers, over shoulder blind spot, and trash infotainment (delayed, dim, lacking tons of features for the $$). JBL Audio is absolute waist of time. Put your Supra in Sport mode and try to stay out of trouble! That what it was built for, one thing, Going Fast and getting sideways. Very Edgy Car! ...

Great review as always. I've been eyeing the new 2-series - well not from the outside, let's be real, from the driver's seat. I'm sure the 30i has better steering. The new G-platform 2-, 3-, and 4-series cars with the smaller engine have a brand-new steering setup for this generation, whereas the 40i versions have to make do with the F-platform cars' steering rack. Apparently the new steering rack wouldn't fit in the 40i models for packaging reasons. My wife has a 330i with the M Sport package, and I actually like the steering in that car a lot. Similar to my now-departed Mk7 GTI, the steering is fairly light and ramps up the steering rate in a more natural way instead of abruptly like you guys mentioned in the video.

Here in UAE, there is quite a price difference between this and Supra. Supra is available for around 220K AED vs 290K AED for M240i. I so want to go with M240i because of practicality and better daily drive avaibility, but difference of 70K AED / 20K USD is pretty large.

This car surprised me in many ways on Spec sheet you supposed to hate it: 3800+ lbs, 225 front tire on wide body and it's BMW not JDM. But once you drove it for 20 minutes you realize how much capability BMW pack in the 52K MSRP car: it is as fast as M2 competition and ride through all the bumpy/broken winter Manhattan street in Comfort mode. 2021+ Supra is 58K MSRP car with markup and forget about any stock or stage 1 Golf or Subaru STI they are not on the same speed league period. Added the rear bias Xdrive yes the tail will step out any second / third gear corner with 50-70% throttle and some room to play.

It's probably one of the best all-in-one performance oriented cars out there right now. The weight is correctible but it's still just one passenger different than a mkiv supra in weight. I wasn't overly impressed with the pirelli sottozero I swapped them for nokian and it was a night and day difference in all aspects.

Scion TC haha. I kind off agree. I personally don’t think it’s that’s bad looking, BUT it doesn’t look as expensive as it is on the exterior. I do appreciate the attempt from BMW designers, to bring a more “boxy” styling to it, like BMW’s of old, but it doesn’t have the classic, sharp angled, boxy Euro design that the E30, E36, and E46 models have. Let’s hope that this is a start to a more classic BMW design, because personally, the E90/92, F80/82, and G80/82 designs are just not that great. The E90/92 M3 had a good design, but it was the start to the poor design that followed it unfortunately. Im happy with the interior design here, as well as the performance, which now makes me think, should I even consider an M2 at this point???

Headlights should be larger and have the two typical BMW rings, grill should be smaller, the grey contrasting elements on the front bumper shouldn't be there, whole car should be about 500 lbs lighter. Hopefully the M is nicer, wouldn't want to see their last small, fun sports car go down the drain.

It's insane how often the statement "BMW 2 series is better than Supra because it's more practical" is made. For some reason, everyone seems to think Supra is a direct 2 series competitor, while Z4, which is 95% identical to Supra, isn't at all. Insane. Just compare 2 series to Z4 and it will make it obvious that Supra and the 2 series (rear-wheel driver, M, all of them) serve two COMPLETELY different purposes and "practicality" was never the intended purpose of the current gen Supra. BMW 2 series is more practical -- ok, but people who buy two-seat sports cars know what they're getting into. It's kinda silly to compare apples to oranges and then say that apples are better just because you can make a BETTER apple pie with apples (something that oranges were never intended for).

We're a 1-car family with a kid and dog and centered around the obviously compromised obese brother, the 640i GT to cover all bases. I don't think I'll ever let it go. I'm interested to see if I can counteract the weight with a stage 1 E85 and the waftiness with some KW coilovers when warranty ends. Wheelbase is the rub on twisties but a dream on rapid California cruises given a good radar detector. It's a rock that I want to nudge towards 340/240 handling territory as much as I can. This channel did a killer video on it that I would like to believe helped convince the wife. I made sure not to marry someone who would force me into two economy cars rather than one great machine like this. B58 is liiiiiife.
