No sms support, low speed transmission is brutal, metal knobs/buttons get lava hot in the summer. Seat is uncomfortable - the lumbar support system is awful. Almost everything is in the wrong place, ergonomically. My dealer sucks. I absolutely would not buy this car again.
It looks nice though. |

There is also a option in iDrive to shut down when the doors are open. However it won't until the passenger also opens their door.

Yes, CarPlay can be a little buggy but it works just fine for me most of the time. I still can't get used to the Lane Assistant pulling me back to Center and have not decided if it is a good thing or not.

You can adjust its sensitivity or turn it off. Considering that it only works above 40 mph (I think) I’ve used it as a opportunity to remember to use my turn signals become then it doesn’t activate. Also have it set on the lowest level.

But that ship has sailed for everyone. The G20 steering is miles better than the last gen. |

After driving G20 330i loaner (with zero options) for one week, I am looking forward to getting back into my F36 440i GC.
Thoughtful conclusions: 4 cylinder engine falls short for me, G20 doors close with a more solid thud than F36 doors, G20 base suspension tries be everything to all road conditions resulting in a busy excessively oscillating ride, door storage compartments are a bit narrow, same applies to the storage compartment in front of the gear shift, strangely enough the left rear seat belt was twisted (lack luster quality control?), more pronounced oversteer in the majority of conditions (not always a welcome change). M340i would be a more fair comparison of course. |

I love the exterior of the car, reminds me of a 5 series in a lot of angles. The space inside is also very roomy, compared to my previous Infiniti Q50.
The technology in this car is insane, it comes with so many features that I still haven't gotten used to yet. This is also my very first BMW I've ever owned so it's a great impression. Some things I don't like about it so far would just be that the navigation is kind of weird as the nav arrow keeps switching directions when I'm driving. I'm used to the standard Navigation where the arrow points forward at all times and does not zoom in and out. So far everything has been great! |

This happened to me in the M340i during the first week of ownership and then it never happened again. I was driving away from work in sport mode after it sat in front of my office all day and it was jerking pretty hard as I drove away. Never happened again after that.... although i never put it in sport mode to start a trip anymore. I feel like the aggressive throttle map of sport plus on a cold transmission was to blame. I have no intention of testing my theory, just glad it only did it to me once.
