don’t even need to watch the video, picking up a rwd, black on red 6 speed 340 this weekend I’m super hyped Edit: Plans changed and I actually picked it up on 12/8. I found the car in my desired spec only 15 minutes away here in SoCal so I got super lucky. So far I’ve put 300 miles on it and love every second of it. The car is on 513M’s, MPPSK, and Dinan coils. Coming from a manual IS300 I found it way more engaging than I thought I would. My only issue with it is the electric steering of course, but once you get past that it’s a perfect daily. Looking high and low for a 6 speed was 100% worth the effort!

If you want a raw driving experience the M3/M4 is what you are looking for. F3x is a much softer family car in comparison. I went from F36 to an F82. Speed isn't everything, but S55 gets more power mod for mod than B58. B58 is really good and fast if the F3x has xDrive. The M3/M4 is more of a drivers car.

It just felt more comfortable and better city driving/traffic manners. I also drove a new M5 and honestly that’s what I really want but they’re still out of my price range unless I get one with high mileage and I want a warranty.

One thing that BMW owners should know, cooling system plumbing is plastic as opposed to metal like in the past. Chances are the heat causes these plastic parts crystallize and develop very small cracks that cause the coolant to evaporate slowly. Therefore no leaks would be detected from a slowly evaporating substance. If possible, replace all platsic plumbing with high quality generic or OEM metal parts.

Aside from the price I would probably do the M340 if possible. The B58 TU1 stock is 382 HP. But I guess you could get the high pressure fuel pump on a 340, downpipe, cold air, tune etc. The one option I would look for is M performance suspension. It does make a big difference between comfort and sport instead of replacing the suspension and it riding hard all the time.
