Am I the only one that thinks 12.6 and 112mph trap speed is not that impressive? I think if it was a 12.4 and 117mph trap speed then for a non M car I would be impressed. Not much difference I know but 12.6 is not that much better than a 2018 340i with xDrive. But compare 12.4 to the old 340i and that's my would be impressive.

Yes, the number doesn't look so impressive, but this is the only 1/4 run to date I'm pretty sure others will have a chance to break that record.

Carwow should put a jb4 on the press car and do some runs, then remove it before returning to bmw. Also do a Dinan tune and a mission performance flash tune.

I mean it's ok but not really a great value proposition if you want a fast car. Plus it has almost no mod headroom with the b58 beyond a few more HP from a JB4 or flash, and youd have to add meth and turbo swap to even get much above 450 whp |

An M3/4 with 6 MT does 12.4 @ 117 and it has 40 more HP and weighs a couple hundred lbs less than the M340. The xDrive hooks up so 12.6s sounds about right. The 112 trap seems legit also. A 2016 C450 with 362 HP did 13.1 @ 108. This BMW is substantially faster. Wait until instrumented tests come out from the major mags for legitimacy.

I've never heard of a GT doing a 11.8s in the1/4. Any sources?

I’m not sure if he had tires or not. Didn’t re-read the article, but I remember when it came out. Cars are getting fast these days |

Weren’t the initial tests of the 2016 340i trapping 105 and 106 when it first came out (magazine times)?
Personally, I just hope that the power bump isn’t just flash based. I hope some hardware was changed, such as the turbo. 😈😈 |

How are they supposed to add a tune that doesn't exist for that platform yet? Maybe same engine, but boost can be different etc for a piggyback, and flash would definitely to be independently developed for the updated DME.

10 speed and pp1 tires, so 275 p4s at the back. Swap the tires,go e85 tune and bolt ons and it's a low 11s car NA The 18 has drag mode which makes it a beast to launch (and dual injection so it doesnt need supplementary fueling until still high horsepower levels) BMW is way behind in the numbers game, but they do have a nicer cabin and a back seat |
