Wonder if a MPPSK will become available to pick up additional HP/Torque? That may resolve the exhaust tip concerns.

Manufacturer hp/torque figures are just estimations anyway. BMW's output figures for the last couple generations of 3 series have been low compared to most values measured via dyno. |

Sensatec seats? So having given us that dreadful Dakota stuff for years they have finally given up and put real fake leather in, rather than real leather that looked fake.
In a 50k car....

The model year convention agreed to by the manufacturers is that the model year is determined by January. If a model is available in January, that is the model year. ie: A car available in Jan 2019 is a model year 2019. A car available Feb thru Dec 2019 is a model year 2020.

I think what is disappointing is that they didn't go with wider tires,

I agree that automakers usually choose to take advantage of the later, "newer" model year, but it is not always the case. |

People are so fascinated with the cheap couch material called Alcantara like it's the best thing since leather was invented. I don't think a lot of people realize that it's NOT leather or the flesh side of the leather hide called Suede. It's literally polyester and polyurethane. I don't like cheap polyester suits nor polyester in my car. |

The new m340 just like the x3m40i has an exhaust system very similar to the mppsk kit that was available for the f3x 340 and 440. I love it on my f32 440 and think it will be a perfect fit for the character of the m340

He was comparing the M340i to the M2C. Obviously the 340 has more space. These 2 models should be priced pretty closely.

I'm an all leather guy. Yes it is treated in a factory but it is a natural material. I can tolerate Alcantara as a headliner that's all. |
