Positive Review

"Nearly as good as my 2009 335i"

Much improved since last gen car. Even though a 4 cyl., it sounds good in sport mode, handles very well, and is quite fun to drive. When you want to relax, use eco pro and just relax. Very quiet inside.

Critical Review

"Car was hauled off to the shop after 145 miles"

Had my brand spanking new M340i delivered to my door. After two meager trips to Costco, I received a brake failure notice and had to have the car towed to the dealer for warranty repairs. TWO WEEKS later the car is returned with ZERO offers from BMW for down time compensation. All this time I received notifications from BMW on how to set up the account online to make my first car payment! Although the dealership was apologetic, BMW simply did not care.

LOL BMW Offered more than I paid

Don’t contact me again, you are full of it. But thanks for nothing. This was an exercise in futility. Have no one contact me.

Great car
Pros

Fast, agile, responsive

Cons

Premium fuel, not great for long trips

This car is the most fun vehicle I’ve ever owned. It isn’t terrible from a fuel economy standpoint, averaging around 25 mpg with fairly aggressive driving.

Best in class sedan
Pros

Fun to drive, comfortable, quality materials, mpg

Cons

I don’t like the idea of no spare but I get RFT.

This car is fun, fast and remarkably comfortable. The styling and storage is superior to similar cars. The mpg stunned me after my Mercedes’ E350. Highway can average close to 40 mpg. The trunk is huge and the interior is comfortable. The Tech is easy to learn and now I love it. My initial impression was too busy. The rear wheel drive is perfect for my needs in Florida weather. The feel, fit and trim are all quality and roomy.

Fast, solid sports sedan
Pros

Power

Cons

Can be pricey with options.

Superb engine with ample power when ever you need it. Comfortable when you want it to be or slip it into sport plus for ultra responsive throttle and steering. X-drive gives you that extra piece of mind in bad weather. Amazing fuel economy. Highly recommend.

The M340i, my first BMW, but not my last.
Pros

Excellent build quality/quick acceleration

Cons

none

The M340i from exterior to interior is well executed. It's rated at 382 hp, but feels more powerful. Switching between drive modes makes the car as comfortable/sporty as you'd like by a quick button push. Overall very happy and as much as I like some of the changes on the '23 model I am glad I ordered this one.
