been thinking about getting one but i hear the car feels slow and the steering is stiff. would you agree?

[@AminVlogs1]

@@NadirPlayzdefinitely not blazing fast but it’s quick enough to beat most of the regular traffic and still plenty of fun around bends. Steering changes with the mode so it’s actually really light in comfort and has a decent feel and stiffness in sport. It’s comfortable yet sporty when you need it to be.

I love BMW and own 2, but the best way I can describe the newer design (2019 - 2021) is like the child proofed it. It just looks smoother, bigger, softer, and chonky.
