Keith Churchman i cant choose between the 435i and 340i, both 6mt w/ msport pckage. I see you have had both the cars, any input u can give me about which car to choose?
@@KayvonGz Yeah all "Toyota's" sport stuff has pretty much always been developed by other companies like Yamaha so it's nothing new. I didnt ever hear anything about the chassis being a z4 chassis, but I did look it up to confirm. So I would say im out of line here, but regardless I still see value in the car. Would a toyota straight-six have made it any better? Doubt it. Would a Toyota chassis make it any better? Doubt it. The bmw z3 coupe and z4 coupe are awesome fucking cars so I dont mind at all. The supra has waaayyy better styling then the z4. The 8 speed trans is homosexual and since it is so heavily based off of a bmw you know the repair/parts costs are going to be high.
@@timm5970 Toyota has part ownership in Yamaha that’s why some parts of high performance Toyota’s, particularly Lexuses use Yamaha engineered parts. But to say that everything is made by Yamaha is just wrong, you don’t know what you’re talking about.
exactly the same wheels as my 2016 340i ,car color is mine is black with saddle brown seats and full Mporformance package as well, 7 month owner, never let me down with 30k miles
RiverRuns NC sadly i dont own the car anymore, got hit 5 weeks ago gettin off work by a student who only had learners for 2 weeks and decided to drive in the city, got paid 31k but sadly a 2016 340i are going for more than what they me , so il wait for at least 2 years before buyin another 1, driving an 04 rsx
Sorry, could not hear what type of tune you did on it, could you respond and spell it out? Can any authorized BMW dealer apply the tune? Approximate cost = ? Thanks for any info.
tommy d u b b s prices dropping fast on them too! able to get a nice 2016-17 one 35-38k waittill 2019 going to be even lower with the m340 new gen coming out
If I’m not mistaken this car actually comes with 355hp stock. It has the m-performance package which gives it 355hp as the non m-performance comes with 320hp stock.
Not entirely true. The MPPSK comes with a catback exhaust in addition to the tune. This version has a way more aggressive tone in addition to the exhaust tips having a thinner profile. The one in the vid is just the M-Sport. The M-Sport package and the sportline both come with 320HP
Nope just a little getting used to as far as the kinks and all but overall I absolutely adore the car it’s super fun luxurious and sporty and I don’t think I’d ever switch from BMW since owning it. Maintenance wise its been 3 months and so far so good no issues and gas is about 21.7mpg rn for me and that’s on sports mode with a bit of comfort mode driving. So all and all 10/10 car.
@@ItzThatKiddRetro oh you just got it recently. I thought you might have had it longer. Isnt 21mpg pretty low? You must be having too much fun with it. I am lookin to get into a 2013-2015 hopefully but worried about ridiculous repairs

I live in Canada, but I have never owned an automatic-T. I simply find them generally to be sluggish in getting to the gear I want. Anyway, for a little over a year now, I have owned 2018 BMW 340 ix (M package) with manual-T, and I simply love the car. The "product genius" at the BMW dealership had never seen that model with manual-T. Probably I am a manual-transmission purist, because - as I once told Mercedes (who, in Canada, do not deliver any of their high-end cars with manual-T), I might consider purchasing an automatic were I either to become either female, or old and decrepit! That highly-sexist comment aside, my wife quite comfortably drives both this car, and our really gorgeous little manual-T 2016 Mini Cooper S. Anyway, I used to drive an manual-T Audi A4 (I love Audi), but changed over to BMW in 2018 when, wanting to upgrade, I found that Audi's new S4 did not offer a manual-T. At that time, I did test-drive the new S4 automatic - and really tried to like it - but again, that familiar and ugly delay in the gear-change, that is the ear-mark of every automatic, irked me; never mind that I prefer to choose what gear, rather than having my car decide it for me! You see, we simply differ far too often! I am not interested in racing cars, and I have even less interest in the "feel of the real driving experience" sort of arguments so often advanced in favor of manual-T (these seem to me to be quite fatuous, if not outright silly). The truth is that automatic-T is very well able to deliver to the "large middle" of driving's requirements. It is only "around the edges" where its weaknesses show. So, to the great number of us who want to drive around with "thumb in bum in mind in neutral", automatic-T is just fine! But, in a long experience of driving (well over 2 million Km), I have three examples where having manual-T meant that I avoided an accident, and I have one recurring pet peeve about Automatic-T that I see again and again, that I explain here: just watch any [automatic-T] car pulling up to a stop at a traffic light, and watch how the heads of all the occupants of that car jerk forward just as the car comes to a full stop. This minor annoyance is almost impossible to avoid in any car with automatic-T, but not in one with manual-T (driven by an aware and competent driver, that is). These little fillips are in addition to numerous other drawbacks of automatic-T that boil down to relatively-unimportant inconveniences in managing and controlling the car. Cheerio.

I don't think anyone is ever going to look at a BMW 3 series, particularly with the words "340i" on the back and think "yeah, I can have this guy in a race", which is what a sleeper is. A sleeper to me is a normally mundane run-around car, say a Vauxhall Astra (that isn't a stock VXR) that has been turned into an absolute monster without any obvious visual clue. So someone pulls up next to it at the lights and is like "Oh, this is just a Vauxhall Astra 1.6 I'm going to absolutely smoke it" before they get destroyed. Whereas there is no way someone is going to pull up next to a 340i and think that! Or to be honest, any 3 series, because even entry level they pack at least 140bhp + and say a mid-range 320d will have enough power to keep most cars honest.
Christ. Are there any REAL drivers left. I am the last person who refuses to drive any shit automatic and then pretend to shift with paddles? Whaaaaaat?
