240i has a bigger engine than the C63se! What a time to be alive

[@ravenheart369]

Why don't you talk about the c63's massive weight? And yet people still buy it

[@nbb6609]

@@ravenheart369 I have no doubt that it would sell! I’m an AMG driver myself and a fan of the brand. Nevertheless, it’s a little painful to see that the downsizing didn’t go to a 6 cylinder first. It’s radical and on one hand I applaud them for jumping to a 4 cycl, but still feel with seeing an M240 having a higher displacement is a bitter pill to swallow

I ordered one also and I was wondering the same thing as @Sneeder88, how long did it take to get it? and in what country?

[@Luca_M240i]

I ordered it very early (July 2022) to make sure it is ready when I must give away my old car. Turns out, I gave away my old car in June and got the new one in August. The salesperson told me that there are huge problems with deliverys of the 2 and 3 series (Limo). Some customers had to wait over a year until it got delivered. It’s build in Mexico and the production over there apparently doesn’t work as planned. But maybe the waiting period also depends on the location from where you‘ve ordered the car. All in all I was very lucky that I got it now even if it was late. But I really can recommend this car. It‘s so good looking in my opinion and so much fun. It‘s just a beast! Hope you get yours faster!

You should do more top gear pulls. You can really feel how the engine works and how the torque is delivered. Awesome.

[@walkemdown4127]

@@BeaglowWell yeah it’s faster, but most sporty drivers prefer manual. Im not an auto hater though, this is one of those cars i’d get an auto over manual, just depends

[@Beaglow]

​@@walkemdown4127 I think I didn't explain well enough what I meant. With the BMW 8 speed auto, you can switch from D to M (or S mode in M group cars) and shift manually with the paddles, so you don't have to take your hands off the wheel, which I believe is faster (and imo better) than a stick shift. I haven't been on tracks a lot, though, so maybe I will be proven wrong. But I was lucky enough to be able to drive a few of the newer cars ( g42 220d, g20 330d, g23 m440i, f90 M5, g80 m3 comp ) and I didn't miss a stick shift. I can imagine that one would prefer a stick just because of the feeling of it, though. With manual you mean a stick shift right? Maybe I got that wrong.

Getting close to ordering an M240 and my dealer keeps trying to talk me into X drive. I live in an area of the country where we do get snow(2-3 months of the year), but I also work from home and wouldn’t have to drive in it on a daily basis (drive about 3-4K a year). My thinking is I should get rear drive especially after seeing this video. (seems more fun, less expensive, etc) No dealers close to me have a rear drive version for me to drive and I was hoping that given that you’ve driven both, you might be able to give me a summary of your impressions/ differences between the driving experience of both?

@@dennistate9951 Ok so I will give you some backstory. I used to own a camaro ss from 2018. The things that made be deside the M240i over the Mach 1 where. #1 M240i is way more comfortable, the space for the backseats is bigger than in the mach 1. 2# the reverse camera is way better, apple car play is way better integrated in the m240i than in the mach1. Mach1 screen is very small and looks out dated. 3# When driving the M240i and mach 1 on the highway the horsepower difference is not noticeable, but what is noticeable is the fact that m240i has way better suspension. Plus, I got tired of the gas mileage that my camaro V8 gave me and also the m240i has more tune potential than the mach1. Hope this helps you decide

[@dennistate9951]

@tanekidd I'm leaning to the M240 The only thing that would make me change my mind and buy the 2024 mustang is financing. I got a buddy that is the finance manager of a Ford dealership. If both cars are close in price but I can get a way better deal on the mustang.. well I'll go that route

[@alextoledox]

@@dennistate9951 bro look at it in the long run. You can tune the F out of the m240i and transform it into an amg killer or a m8 killer without any issues. After pimping your m240i you go on ilegal street races and win everytime. You´ll bet all your savings and win, this way you´ll become millionaire in no time, get the car you trully want and not a block of metal with a V8. You wont need to work a 9 to 5 any more, just do a couple of races every now and then and live like a king.
