I went through the worst breakup in my life. I really loved and still love this girl. It's been a month, almost 2 and I suffer every single day from the moment I wake up.

You couldn't be more wrong lol. www.bmwusa.com/build-your-own.html#/studio/eq6o9w52/design Literally base price on the M340i is $54,700 USD and spec'd to the max is $64,800 The M340i xDrive is $56,500 USD. Spec'd out to the top is $66,800. Maybe you should do the slightest research before calling someone out ;)
@@BrosFOURRSpeed NO NO... There's no glitch. All your other words that begin with a consonant and are followed by an "A", like hand or "transmission", or words that start with the letter "A" you pronounce He-und and tre-unsmission. Or drive "Ea-uxle. Just like the words tan or man or can or land. You would pronounce them te-un, me-un, ce-un, or Le-und. I've worked in speech therapy and I'm very familiar with accents. Which you or any other midwesterner would pronounce "Eaccent" It's an American thing, with the inflection more pronounced in midwestern folks. Just like someone from upstate New York or Michigan, or Illinois etc would pronounce the word Mom "Mahm". Where the short "O" is pronounced like a short "A". Similar with " Dot Com" you will pronounce it " Dat Cam" Or the word "Not". Your pronunciation would be "Naht". Just like the name Jon. You and pretty much any other American pronounce it "Jahn". Depending where you're from will depend on how hard you hit the A. So if someone is named Jan... It would be indistinguishable from the way you pronounce John. And no you're pronunciation is not correct. Why don't you watch the channel throttle house with Thomas and James and Listen to Thomas speak. His command of the English language is spot on. You'll find that his vowel pronunciation sounds strange and kinda formal to u, yet it is how said vowels should be pronounced in proper English. Have a good one

Tempting with gas prices to switch from my tundra to this. Double the gas mileage and only $10k out of pocket… tough choice.
Want one but dont want to pay crazy dealer mark ups
Hendrick is not marking up any of their vehicles! They aren't about ripping people off like that and are sticking with being loyal to the customer!
Did this model have MPE? Sounded a bit punchier than a normal m340i. I’m convinced my 2022 sounds better then the 2021 but it could be placebo
