440 Vs 430 with M Package ?
Looking for inputs from those that know. Is a 430 with M package a fun car for a daily Driver ? The only BMWs I ever owned have had the B58 motor and I love that power. With todays driving and My advanced age I wonder if 430 is enough. Any inputs will be considered as advice only.

Yes. 430i is enough. A fantastic daily driver. The car is fast, very fast. And amazingly balanced and light in the corners. Handles and accelerates like a much smaller car. Just amazing. The greatest BMW I’ve ever owned. It’s fantastic. Mine is 2024, M-Sport, RWD, Adaptive M Suspension, and someone who knows how to configure and utilize the various sport modes as a point of reference. |

Before buying an M340, I test drove a 330 and M440 back to back. After 15 minutes in the 330 I was ready for the test drive to end. After 15 minutes in the M440, I didn’t want the drive to end. |

I think if you had a B58 and then went to the 4cyl, you'll feel like something is missing.
I owned two BMWs with the B58. I didn't need its power - the 4cyl has plenty of that for me - but there was no replicating the B58's sound, so that's why I optioned it. Zero regrets; it's an amazing engine. Use YouTube if you don't feel like test driving. Charles
