I have to agree on your points about driving it. The car is a perfect blend of sport and comfort, especially with the adaptive suspension. The reason that this car is so much heavier than the M340i is because of sound deadening; the M440i GC is a lot quieter at speed. It's a marvelous daily driver. Regardless of whether you like the looks or not, BMW nailed the dynamics of this car.

In Australia, the M340i & M440i has the same B58 engine like in Europe except that the powertrain does not have the mild hybrid tech and most importantly, it has more power. It is rated at 387 PS or 285 kW compared to the 374 PS or 275 kW state of tune sold in Europe.

in photos and video, you stare at the nose. in person you appreciate the entire car and it's not a big deal. I would have ordered one but I ordered an X3 M40i instead because of shipping delays to the US. I test drove a 4 cylinder, it felt sharp.

[@vxder9570]

The car noise isn’t fake. With an exhaust and downpipe the noise is amplified and much louder. The reason for keeping it within the engine bay is so it doesn’t void regulations in the UK

I have same exhaust sound on my 2017 440i with mperformance silencer/muffler

[@LuisDaVa1]

Here in Mexico, the M240i, M340i and M440i has the same engine like in Europe but doesn't have the mild hybrid tech in the powertrain, so the engine has more power 386hp, the same power as the B58 that you can find in the new Supra or BMW Z4 M40i, but in México the M240i and M340i are built in the San Luis Potosí Plant, the M440i is imported from Germany, i think that's the reason that the 3 series doesn't have the mild hybrid tech because the 3 series made in México is exported to US, Canada, Australia, Latin America and some countries in Africa like South Africa

[@LuisDaVa1]

And i think so in some countries like US or Europe the B58 engine doesn't have pop's and bang's and dsg farts, here in Mexico all these things are retained in this models because in Mexico doesn't have a regulation of emissions

[@anuragreddykanuganti3187]

As someone who owned both the G20 330i and this G26 M440i, I can say I like both of them. They both have their advantages and disadvantages looks and practicality wise. 3 series grill is good looking but the 4 series grill is not as bad as some people say it is. Again, it’s a personal opinion and I like both of them. This gets more heads turning while a lot more 3 series can be found on the roads so people won’t mnotice them as much. The headlights on the 3 series are better looking but the lamps themselves with the blue accents look better on the 4 series. The taillights on the 3 series are better looking IMO but the backside looks better on the 4. Boot capacity and rear leg room are better on the 3 but 4 can fit bigger objects easily because of the hatch. 4 is much more expensive (even when comparing to the M340i) but the 3 series no longer comes with all the features in the states because of the chip shortage and I wanted to try something new as well. I like both of them and would recommend both of them to anyone. Can’t wait to hear those shift bangs but I’m still waiting on the break in period to complete. BTW, there’s no sub woofer in the boot and I have the Harmon Kardon surround sound upgrade added. My 4 only has 104 miles on it as of now. Have to drive more to experience the mighty B58.

[@davidzvezda]

What is your impression going from b48 to b58. Was b48 fast “enough” with lighter chasis. Is it worth the price difference just the engine( Not referring to “g20 to g26”)

[@anuragreddykanuganti3187]

@@davidzvezda b48 should be more than enough for anyone. RWD vs xDrive depends on the region you live. I didn’t experience the b58 with xDrive fully yet because of the break in. I’ve only been driving in comfort mode and under 4K RPM. But I’ve test driven an M340i RWD in sport plus and that itself was a big difference. But 14K USD more just for the performance alone depends on your willingness to spend more. Both are great. Upgrading gives you more than just the engine though. Gives you the M sport body kit, M sport brakes, Mild hybrid system, M sport differential and many standard features that would have been added options on a car with b4 otherwise. Again, if you don’t care about the features like Driven Assistance Pro pack, Parking Assistance pack, Harmon Kardon speakers, Head up display, etc, you can live well with either of the engines. The only reason I went with M440i is because 430i Coupe, Convertible or Gran Coup or even 330i or 330e don’t come with a lot of features at least for the 2022 year. Even M340i doesn’t come with some and there’s no way you can add them but I like the M440i even though it’s much expensive.

[@anuragreddykanuganti3187]

@@davidzvezda Also, I’ve test driven the i4 M50 as well and that is no joke. I felt like I would crash it the second I floored it. I would definitely not recommend that one to anyone who doesn’t know what they’re getting into and would not buy it myself even if I had the money. M3 comp RWD level of performance in any unexperienced driver’s hands is a tragedy waiting to happen lol.

[@yaboirolly]

@@anuragreddykanuganti3187 Can we get a video or exhaust note sound? I have a 2021 430i (B48) and it’s a fun coupe for entry. I would like to let it go next year and get a M440i next. Hearing that it’s a big difference makes it worth the upgrade then.

[@anuragreddykanuganti3187]

@@yaboirolly I've never uploaded videos or anything like that in the past 😅. But I've heard the sound while shifting at 4500 RPM and it's loud and great. Red line shifting should be better. There's also this pops and bangs which are great as well but not sure if we can hear the same from the outside. Might be coming from the speaker because I noticed a setting related to sounds which I've never seen in the 330i. Still sounds great but it could be fake. Does it make the car worse, nope. Should you get the car just because of this sound? Also no IMO.

[@ven9766]

that's one beautiful car

[@TheMstwntdLMSV123]

Can you do better at presenting? There's a reason he has 3.3 million subscribers, and you have 4. Also, the car is limited to 155 MPH. What you're seeing is that he is approaching cars in front of him, so he's lifting off the accelerator to let the car slow down and not hit the car coming up. You'd notice this if you weren't so critical of him.
