Honestly, they need the 2021 Supra in this video. This was a good matchup for the roll race, but xDrive destroys off the line.

+1 on the AWD comments. AWD is such a big advantage

Well I can tell you right off the bat the Supra exhaust sounds better. Ever since BMW added the mild hybrid setup in the 2021 M340 and now the 2021 M440, they tuned out the exhaust burbles and the exhaust overall has less of a bite.

Exactly. I was surprised he said they both sounded the same! Or maybe I misheard him?

I actually like that the burbles are gone and it's a more "pure" sound again.

The outcome of these races don't surprise me in the slightest. Can't wait to see what the AWD M3 & M4 due to the competition soon.

The Supra is truly one of the coolest cars BMW has built in these past years (next to the M2)

Good info, off the line it was no brainer
Rolling I was a bit surprised. Bmw never gives up it's true power to anyone!

Everyone also forgets the mild hybrid reduces turbo lag for a little extra boost.
Going from a 18 340i B58 to a 21 G30 M340i; There is so much less lag form a dig and at passing speeds. (The F30 had the powerkit too)

Really wished this was between the GR Supra vs the M440i, non xDrive. Although, that'll probably just end up an argument over weight.

It's the 2020 which got the older, less powerful B58. If it had been the 2021 model, it would have pulled on the M440i from a roll. And yes xDrive does make that much of a difference from a dig, just look at any of the M3/4 vs M340i/440i videos.

I am also going from a 18 340i to a 21 M340xdrive. Car currently in production. Have actually enjoyed the 2018, and with everything I've been reading from current owners of the 21 M340's we are in for a treat!

Currently own a 20 Supra and test drove the m440, off the line and just punching it the m440i is faster, but I think in a roll the 21 will beat it. Driving wise you can not compare, the supra is much lighter and handles a lot better, steers better, and most definitely sounds better. The m440i has a much more artificial feeling to it and more luxo coupe then sports car.
