I picked up my M340i today

BigSky702 · 06-06-2019, 11:36 AM

1.7 times the HP and about .3 seconds faster to 60 (yea yea I know, I'm a stop light dragster)...

One of the reasons I wrote off American muscle cars,
Weight distribution , putting power down, etc...
Seems you get minimal gains for daily living, but lovely exhaust note!!

I (and probably others) had assumed you meant 100kph, which is 62mph.

Whoops!! My bad!

It hit's 0-60 in 3.4 seconds and 100 3.9 seconds later which is actually 0-100 in 7.3 seconds.

Haha, that makes much more sense!

I've yet to even see a new CTS-V let alone an ATS-V....They must be really rare.

Ummmm, that's 0-100, not to 60. It is 3.4 seconds to 60.

Yeah that would be 100 kph. Unless it has a special button somewhere like the Starship Enterprise..

Top Fuel dragster mode engages all 10,000 hp.

It's an easy mistake to make though, good catch.

Fantastic machine. To my opinion, the sweet spot BMW offers between daily practicality, comfort, performance AND TCO!

Wow, big numbers. Especially the floating hub caps, you should have gotten 8 for that price!

Cosmo_Kramer · 06-08-2019, 11:23 AM

What’s Paint Protection Level 1? PPF for front bumper?

I got my ordered M340i Xdrive to under $60k... basically zero options

I thought it was a clear bra but it's door edge guards on each door from the factory. My local dealer adds these for a cheaper price. Don't think it was worth it from bmw

I just got out of my f30 and it was $61k. I decided to add all the safety features this time since I did not have them on my last car.

BigSky702 · 06-09-2019, 05:11 PM

WOW. 4 sec into the video, M340i shows 105 vs 100... may not be 100% accurate but still, the low end quickness seems as good or better than current M3/4! Impressive
