So why does the 430I have MSport seats but the M440I doesn't?
And the M440I gets the M Mirrors now? To match the M50I even though the power variant? So many questions lol But the M440I looks good and the hatchback will be good to have again |

Might be only 20 hp increase since 2010 but it's WAY faster than a car from 2010. A 2010 bmw 328i did 0 to 60 in 7.6s. A 2021 330i now does it in 5.4 seconds. So who cares about hp numbers....

Suddenly my OG F87 mirror caps are looking pretty special

Exactly. So wouldn't that mean that this model will be out for less than a year before the other models start to get the dual screen iDrive screens? (Not that I care for them...)

So a M340xi is lighter by 200lbs, faster, better looking (subjective, I know), more practical and cheaper.
What am I missing?

Well I do agree with you on the first part, but the GranCoupe has a hatchback so I dont see how the M340I would more practical? Also the M440I will have the frameless windows which is really nice lol

Glad to finally see this launch. The car looks good overall except those pieces on the rear corners, not sure what is going on there with those bits.
I am surprised the interior door handle assembly and door storage pocket is so different compared to the G20. The G26 seems to have a much larger storage at the bottom of the rear doors but the handle assembly itself looks very basic and not as nice as the G20 door handles. However, this style of vehicle is still perfect for many of us who want a little more practicality than a traditional sedan but not ready to move to an SUV. |

Also looks like the i4 grills separate a bit more at the bottom which also helps the design out a little bit IMO

It looks like Aventurin Rot.

Performance suffers a little too: 0-100 km/h in 6.2 s for the EU-spec 430i and 0-60 mph in 5.8 s for the US spec Last edited by MPSdriver; 06-09-2021 at 01:33 AM.. |

The OS8/widescreen dash is supposed to come to the G20/G21 with the mid-2022 LCI, and to the 4 series in early 2023, last I checked. |
