For me it's not the looks - it's the steering. If I am buying this car, it's most likely for fun almost-daily use. So, things like inputs and feedback are important. Even with that possible issue, the rest of the M240i is pretty darn compelling. The power and the engine sound would be easy to enjoy in any situation, and I do really like the new interior design - modern and upscale while remaining purposeful. I've always been a Toyota and Lexus guy, but when my wife got a 330i M-Sport last year, I started to come around on new BMWs after living with it for almost a year now. That car is fantastic to drive, so I can only imagine what a coupe-ified version with that sweet six cylinder would be like.

Here’s a quote from Car Magazine in the UK, one of the most respected and experience team of testers in the world. The M240 was up against the Audi RS3 and Merc A45S. It won the group test; ‘The M240i won in two areas of crucial importance for a roadgoing performance car: ride and handling. The steering is on another level, blending a fluent meatiness with total clarity and exactly the right measure of response. No comments added, no facts suppressed, no cryptic messages or fancy stunts clouding the performance. There is a linearity and honesty to this direction-finder the other two more heavily chip-loaded systems simply cannot match. Everything about it is spot-on: gearing, weight, balance, accuracy, speed of response, even the turning circle.’ I would agree that electronic racks don’t have the old feedback but that doesn’t mean this car isn’t fun to drive. The drivetrain and handling are phenomenal and the car balances luxury, performance and practicality perfectly. That’s the whole point. If you want the ultimate sports car, a 718 or even Miata would work well. But not everyday. And not year round in northern climes.

For someone who's never owned a luxury car, closest I got was an is350, when I saw and sat in this car I could feel how different it felt over mainstream vehicles. Same as I felt when I put on a luxury watch, coming from wearing seikos and Citizens. Love it. And I think I'm going to save up for 3-4 more months and order one in the summer. Hopefully I'll get it by next winter.

@@inosurrender8327 I drove a 2nd-gen IS 350 recently for the first time, and I own a 2021 IS 350. I don't think anyone would argue the new car's interior is "fancier" outside of the gauges and screens, but the solidity of the new car is better than the '08 I drove. Though, it also had 165k miles, so maybe that's to be expected. Really what stood out to me was the steering. It was a bit slower of a rack compared to my '21, but it had pretty nice weighting and feel. The transmission was terrible though. Very lazy, took forever to downshift. People complain about Lexus's transmissions, but the 8-speed in the RWD cars feels like it's decades ahead of the 6-speed that was in the 2IS.

I have a 2021 XDrive M340. Most of the mechanical components between the cars are exactly the same, with the exception of the mild hybrid system being missing from the M240. You can slide the back end out on command as long as you are in sport traction mode or have traction / stability control off. In fact, I’ve slid the back end out 30 degrees or so accelerating from a stop in a tight corner in sport traction mode, so I probably wouldn’t recommend you defeat the system entirely when on the street.

@@misterdragzon Interesting. The Xdrive to me is easy to slide in sport traction mode (within reasonable limits), especially from a stop and below 25 or 30 with some steering angle. I think your issue may actually be the tires. May car came with 225 series Pirelli all seasons. You could slide them like a Toyota BRZ. I have since upgraded to 245's all around, and I noticed it is more difficult, but since they are still all seasons (Bridgestone Comp2 AS), I can still slide the car. If it was 80 degrees and they were PS4S (which I think are 255 width if they come from the factory), it probably would be difficult -- which is probably what BMW intended since they want higher overall performance out of that package. Last, IMO, I think that the new version of Xdrive is mostly rear wheel drive in sport traction mode and under certain parameters (sport mode or above, no windshield wipers on, and not under freezing for instance). The car is not that powerful if you were say sending 50 / 50 power to each axle.

The Camaro and Mustang are much faster though and the Camaro handles much better. This is the only review where I've heard someone praising the handling characteristics. This AWD system is FWD biased...gross. Also, no one is actually getting these for $55k, they are being marked up like crazy and the options are not cheap. Meanwhile, I got my Camaro LT1 (SS minus leather seats) for $40k last October.

@@huehuehue-x3c The Camaro and Mustang are definitely faster in the top-end, but I think it'd be pretty hard to beat the AWD system off the line (though I live in the South, so it doesn't really matter). The AWD system isn't FWD-based; it's RWD-based. BMW makes 3 cars in the US that offer FWD-based systems: the X1, X2, and 2-Series Grand Coupe (which is built on an entirely different platform from the 2-Series Coupe). My neighbor got his 2021 M340i a little before the pandemic started, so there were no markups back then. I think he paid around $60K (it stickered for 1-2K above that). If you load up a Mustang GT like the car in this video (adaptive cruise, heated seats, B&O sound, auto transmission) you'll be somewhere in the mid-fifties. I'd probably take the BMW over either the Camaro or the Mustang; I just can't deal with those interiors anymore. They're super fun to drive, though.

@@huehuehue-x3c Nope, it’s absolutely a RWD based system. It defaults to 40/60 F/R and can send 100% of the power to the front or rear on demand. If you put it in sport mode, it will default to sending even more power rearward. It’ll definitely let you get a little sideways. The 2 Series Coupe, 3 Series Sedan, and 4 Series coupe/convertible/gran coupe are all the same underneath: longitudinally mounted engine with a transfer case behind the transmission. You may be thinking of Audi; many of their cars with longitudinally mounted engines have AWD systems that default to 50/50 F/R and have engines ahead of the front axle, leading to under steer tendencies.

Im really excited for the M2. When it comes out you can be sure im going to buy it. Like a mini M4. Now the M240i isn’t much of a upgrade to my Supra even with AWD and more space (What im missing in my Supra) I hope it gets those cool performance bucket seats like in the new M3/M4. And thanks to M performance parts you can make something truly special.

Just had a spirited test drive in one today in Sport mode down the motorway and through some twisty corners on the way back, my thoughts are its very smooth, high overall quality feel, fantastic cabin and dash , much better than BMW's of old also its definitely quick but also a bit too refined for my liking, too mature, not enough exhaust or engine noise and didnt try and kill me "even a bit", reminded me of a Honda sports motorcycle "a bit too good at its job" Im not saying its bad in any way it will suit alot of people but for me im thinking an M2 may be more suitable, Im yet to drive one but what I have seen they look a bit more wild and raw, less businessman and more hooligan, anyway just my 2 cents

I have the 2018 M240i and love it. But i am here in the UK, but in the future i would love to move to MI. Have friends in that area, and work. But honestly the 240I seems so small for the roads in Mi. Especially with all the larges trucks, so would be nervous buying this in the US.

After waffling between the new Supra (BMW in Toyota clothing) and the "will it ever arrive" Nissan Z, I just put in my deposit and order for this BMW M240i Xdrive. It's a better value than the Supra with all-wheel drive, gives a you more passenger and cargo room, better driver ergonomics and road visuals, easier to service (I heard the Supra can be challenging to find qualified mechanics), and in the end it's a pure BMW. The "Z"? Even if it does make it here, you'll pay a huge premium even if you can get your hands on one. The M240i is a killer deal and much more of a sure bet than the other two (great as they are).

I think it looks great. People crying that it doesn’t look like a traditional bmw, but at least it does evolve. I mean have you looked at a 2022 Audi S4? It looks 15 years old. Relax with the “it’s ugly” feedback. This car is far from ugly

Gr8 review, Chris. Didn’t Topher Jr. do the 230i review a few weeks back? 230i more compelling for me. Lighter front end, RWD. And this car changes from kind of ugly to extremely better depending on color choice. Looks best in black. Had a great test drive in it. Need to part with a car to commit. 850 Turbo Wagon love/hate relationship or this? Quandary😩
