It just doesn't. It's boxy, the front is very busy, the headlights are just single, not double, the taillights are not the classic BMW shape. It's tall... The current 3 series is the only BMW that gets close to the classic looks

Just bought a used 2023 M240i xdrive with 3,000 miles in Melbourne Red with every option on it including Shadowline, adaptive suspension. Test drove an M2 and beat the hell out of me. Drove this and it is night & day. For me, it’s the perfect daily that gives a great ride and can provide a ton of fun when I want to get on the gas. I love having AWD with the rain we get in the southeast and sometimes the snow in the upper part of the state I live in near the BMW factory here in SC.

Honestly, the state of KZbin at the moment is unbelievably bad. The video is about what YOU SHOULDN'T EXPECT when buying a car like this. I've got a lot of questions about how this car compares to my previous M2, so I've made this video telling people not to expect this to be comparable. It's not that deep, honestly. You just need to listen to words and understand them.

So I own a m240i in RWD while my dad owns a AWD one. All the points you made are valid for the AWD, but with the RWD the understeer is gone, the rear tires are wider, car sits just slightly lower, feels way tighter on corners and most importantly it is what a BMW should feel like. Pure fun. The back end is easy to slide out. You can do burnout for days. I mean the car is an absolute blast. Yes the ZF dulls the fun just a little but I do think that if you live in a place where you don’t need AWD and don’t want to spend the extra 20k on a m2 then the RWD version of the m240 is the car you want.

Sorry, i bought it this Jan for my 2023 M240i xdrive and love everything about it. Actually, a few points you mentioned are those i love. I love the look of it since it looks super sporty compared with earlier model. Earlier model 2 looks soft. I love the automatic transmission. I will sometimes drive a very long distance and also might stuck in traffic from time to time, automatic transmission doesn't tire me. I'd agree with the weight and cornering isn't great compared to lighter cars.

The M240i is not an AWD only car as you stated, as I own a 2023 RWD and it is absolutely fantastic. I have had a 2014 BMW M235i RWD for many years and I will say the 2023 is not quite the go-kart handling feel of the 2014 but it has other advantages that make up for it. As far as looks, very subjective. My Brooklyn Gray gets a lot of attention and waves almost every time I have it out. This car looks absolutely amazing coming down the road from the perspective of the oncoming traffic on the other side. A strong and powerful wedge look, like an anvil. I recently got rid of the plain Jane factory exhaust and installed a Quad tip axle back Dinan exhaust. Absolutely incredible sound and look.

Your comments about the new M240i's over-reliance on techology/video screens vs hard button controls is a main reason I opted for the 2023 x3 M40i...before it too would morph into a video screen dominated driving environment. The B58 ZF8 speed engine/transmission combo is absolutely excellent. I DO appreciated the M Adaptive Suspension in our x3 M40i and suspect that feature would also benefit the M240i's handling.

I'd have to respectfully disagree. I love my 2023 M240i. I think it's the best looking BMW currently and I get many, many people mentioning it to me. Mine is Brooklyn Grey with black interior. The technology is great on this car and if you want to go back to analog days, that's great but the information presented is far superior and more plentiful than the old speedo - tach days. This car is a rocket (so I could care less about how much it weighs) that handles really well, too. My last one was a stick and I loved it but this 8-speed tranny shifts far faster than I can, and more accurately. To each their own but as soon as I saw this car, and what it could do for the price, I bought one and haven't looked back since.

You can disagree, of course, but it's pretty solid advice. I have spoken to people who didn't buy this car specifically because of the new infotainment screen and how they integrated most functionalities in it. Same goes for the handling. It's a great car overall, no doubt about it, but if handling is your priority you will most likely want to buy the M2. The M240i is more of a grand tourer car. A very good one I might add

Hmm.. So.. I guess I will keep my F22(July 2019 - last batch) "M" 230i (B48) a bit longer ;)) (just for the fact that I have analogue gauges AND a physical handbrake Oo). For me the biggest drawback on the newer M240i was the huge screen that is for everything - I want needles on round "clocks" and RWD only not this all wheel thing. But it sounds it's not even that fun to drive. The F22 230i is not a true M car and I know that, but man I still have a lot of fun with it as it's RWD and pretty light :) I hoped I the new M240i would be even better ... PS: The lack of physical buttons for climate control is also a big minus, the radio buttons and hell even the Old school CD player ;)) I still have older CDs with Music that I listen to for nostalgia moments while being stuck on a motorway;)

Hi Paul. Would you consider a M440 instead? I am interested in buying one of these two models and i am not enterily decided wich one should i choose. I tried both models but unfortunately the 2 liter diesel. In my deep of my heart i like the M440 coupe more because of its looks and more premium and spacious feel inside. I like the bigger doors and the fact that its not looking like a lego car (the m240 is too high). But now is the real quiestion, the driving feeling. I see everywhere that everyone gives more credit to the M240 regarding the performance of the car and how it feels in corners, but i see that you are not so pleased with it. I dont really know what to pick because i'm kind of guy who likes to push the car and to feel everything in the car.

I didn't consider the M440i simply because it was much more expensive than the m240i, but not very different. I drove the 430i and I really enjoyed it, but again, it's not that different to the 2 series. However, considering your last sentence, it sounds like you would like an M-car more than the M-performance equivalent

2022 G42 is a better balanced car when it comes to the tech ... still has button controls and a better dashboard design. Not the lazy, slap two iPads together design in the 23' and 24' models. This is a great car for daily driving especially if you live in high traffic areas with an average 28 MPG (mostly highway), great comfort and X-drive for those winter conditions. I've had my M240i for 2 years and love it. I've changed the tires, exhaust and suspension to make it more sportier and to handle better ... and at a fraction of the cost for a new M2.

YOUR COMPLAINTS AND DISLIKES ARE " INVALID ". YOU SHOULD HAVE SPENT THE EXTRA MONEY AND PURCHASED ANOTHER M2. YOU WANT THIS CAR TO BE AN M2 AT 15,000 DOLLARS CHEAPER. I JUST PURCHASED A 2024 M240i X DRIVE AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!! I TEST DROVE THE M2 AND I FELT LIKE I WAS DRIVING THE SAME EXACT CAR ONLY WITH A MANUAL IN THE M2. NO MATTER HOW FAST THE M2 IS, BOTH CARS WILL TOP OUT AT 155 MILES PER HOUR. SO DO YOU REALLY NEED TO SPEND 15 GRAND MORE TO GET WHERE YOU'RE GOING A LITTLE FASTER. PLUS, WITH THE ALL WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM IN THE M240i XDRIVE, YOU CERTAINLY WON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT WET ROADS AND A LITTLE SNOW ON THE GROUND.
