Hopefully this forum isn't dead because everyone drives SUVs now so let's get it going! Post your introduction to the G20 including pics if available.
I just ordered an M340i xDrive for the wife and I'm pretty freakin' excited about it. After two test drives I was fairly convinced that it matched the performance of my E92 M3 while being more liveable, up to date, and AWD which I prefer. She of course loved it and to my surprise loved Tanzanite Blue (she normally dislikes blues). Seattle remains a desert when it comes to German auto discounts so we will again travel to Portland and I would guess we'll have the car early August.

New to BMW, so this is my first time with a German car. Decided to go with the 330 M-sport and got full front PPF and ceramic coating. Very happy with the car so far (apple CarPlay issues aside). I was REALLY tempted to go form the m340 but opted against spending more this early in my career. Maybe an M3 will be in my future in 5-7 years

My car is at the port! I'm guessing another 6 weeks to wait.

Checking in
Mine is currently being painted.
It will be replacing my F10 which I absolutely LOVED. I initially went to order a G30 but I was pretty impressed with the M340 which convinced me otherwise. Interior color and wheels were the hardest options to pick. It initially had the 792 wheels with oyster int but below is the final configuration. This will be my 1st blue car ever! Here is how it is configured: 2020 M340i XDrive – 5U93 Portimao Blue Metallic – C31 Black Vemasca w/ Blue Stitching – MANL Fine – wood trim oak grain open pored – 4KA Driving Assistance Pack – ZDA Premium Pack – ZPP Executive Pack – ZPX Front and Rear Heated Seats – 4HA Ambient Lighting – 4UR Power Tail Gate – 316 Remote Engine Start – 1CR - $300 Wireless Charging and Wi-Fi Hotspot – 6NW & 6WD Harmon Kardon – 688 Space Saver Spare – 300 790M wheels with all season NON-RFT 1PE

Light at the end of the tunnel!
Mine is now sitting at the port. I do not anticipate for it to show up until the end of Sep.

Mine was about a week at port then a full 27 days at sea. Thankfully I've had a busy summer so time flies.

I have been driving my T-5R for the past week and zero complaints on the wait.

Made it to Oceanus Leader. It has a scheduled stop in NY on 8/11. I think it will take another 2 weeks to get to Oxnard but who is counting

I’m an Eastsider and 2 weeks ago picked up an M340i from Seattle BMW. I traded in a 17 A4, which was a great car. But, I absolutely love the M340i - so much fun to drive!

I’m really thinking about adding vinyl m strips down the front bumper or hood, or a white rally stripe. Not sure how the m colors will look against the Portimao blue. Did you get your M340i from Kuni? My first color choices were Portimao or TB - I would have went either way. |
