Driver and machine become fused, nervous system branching into chassis, hands and arms contiguous with the steering column, brain communicating with idrive in real time, suspension adapting to moods and whims, moods and whims adapting to the ///Magic. Human and machine becoming something more than the some of their parts. The synergy of flesh with stardust realized on the track or perhaps a twisty back road on the way to utopia.

We realize that the m340i, m240i and whatever else can't offer the true ///M experience. They are pretty good cars in their own right though. They won't change your life, or who you are, but they are a comfortable, practical, and fun way to get around on a daily basis. That's all.


That ///Magic must only be present at the limit, because the M4 was fatiguing as hell during daily city driving... ( 3 years ). Don't get me wrong, it's a fun car, but has it fair share of warts!

Wanna make your M340 visceral, down pipe and tune or just buy a full ///M.

Want life changing? Get a Bugatti.
Damn BigSky702! Your ///M experience makes me think I'm being left out somehow. Lol! I remember when people said similar things about the E46 and E9X ///M's. Up until my '17 ///M4, I daily drove all of my previous 6MT ///M's [with a minimum one hour commute one way; up to 2 hours with traffic], and never thought they were fatiguing, etc.....and I drive on SoCal streets. I put 35,000 miles on my '15 ///M4 in just a little over a year before trading up for my Individual order. Thankfully I have a beater 2003 Mercedes C230 with 333,000 miles to drive daily that keeps the miles off of my ///M4 (..which has less than 13,000 miles after nearly 3 years).
