    I got my 2024 Oct this year. A Brooklyn grey and tacora red leather. I was sold on the B58 as the engine I wanted to have for sure. Now I can’t be perfectly precise with the pricing any cheapening out with some interior parts yes no heated rear seats, yes no leather horn cover. But from what I remember as far as pricing not any if much price change with other car manufactures going up crazy in price, I would say this has stayed close to a two year ago price. Now all that being said as my third BMW omg a fun driving car. All the power you could ever really need unless you’re a true race car driver and a truly awesome daily driver.

    uestion for you. Just test drove a 2024 M340Xi. Stickered for $67k and proposed sale price was $62k. 7500 mile lease was almost $1100 a month. Seemed like a lot to me for what the car is. Should have been $900 ish. The tech is cool, but I wish it had more touch buttons. When I was driving it around it felt like it was dragging. When I let off the gas it felt like it braking. Definitely a different feeling if it's normal. Most other cars I've drive,, Mercedes, Audi, Lexus, etc. roll with less resistance when you're not on the throttle. Wasn't sold on the car. Does it feel like there was resistance, like it was dragging to you when you were driving at lower speeds and low rpms? Perhaps that's normal.

    @@StlPike2004Adding “low speeds and low RPM’s” made all the difference. At first I thought you were driving it in manual in the upper RPM’s while shifting to a lower gear. But I understand what you’re saying. Though I haven’t driven a M340i, I am interested and have to admit that would be an odd experience. Maybe drive a different one and see if theirs a difference. 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Well yes I believe the dragging is how the car tends to drive like a manual transmission and how it holds gears and also that is what is also called regenerative braking by BMW. Now it is more aggressive in the sport modes than comfort mode. This is my third BMW and all three have had a different drivetrain feel than other cars, they don’t have that let off the gas coast in neutral feeling. It is actually something I like about them, always having a standard transmission feel for an automatic.

    @@steveelson2999 I'm assuming yours didn't have many options. I assume $5k down dropped the payment around $100 a month. Not trying to be weird, but no way you got into a $67k M340 for $600 something. I have perfect credit and after $5k off, at $62k it was $1050 cause of a 3% money factor. $600 something means your sale price was in the high $50k range? I'm sure you had $1k or $1500 loyalty cash too. Show your paperwork, lol.

    @davidalenick1246 thanks for both responses. I've driven other Audis, Mercedes, Lexus, and Infiniti. The M340xi felt like regenerative braking, like taking my foot off the gas and the brakes were being applied. I tried normal, Sport and sport+. Only a 15 min test drive, which isn't long enough for my liking. Sales person came along too, which I don't always like. I had a 2021 Infiniti Q50 Redsport and got into a new one. After negotiating $4k off the BMW, I couldn't convince myself to spend $5k more a year than the Infiniti ($15k more over 3 years) to get the BMW. I like the Redsport a lot. BMW tech is newer and the car is a tad faster, and I plan to revisit in a few years. Hopefully lease rates are better. I can afford both, but $15k wasn't something I was able to convince myself of. Nice car though for sure.

    The mild hybrid is excellent reducing almost all turbo lag and produces excellent fuel economy. The first gen B58 I had on my 2016 340i XDrive. It was 320hp. Very reliable engine as well and averaged a very good 26.5mpg. I now have the second gen high output version in my 2021 M340i xDrive (it debuted in 2020). The 48v mild hybrid system was also added in 2021. It averages 31.2mpg. To my knowledge nothing has really changed since. And honestly, nothing really needs to. Very reliable, very refined, power at all rpms, and excellent fuel economy.

    They’ve been much better electrically compared to 15-20 years ago, and this B58 engine is considered one of the most capable and reliable mass produced turbocharged engines, and the ZF 8-Speed has been considered even better. Toyota uses both the engine and transmission in their supra 👍🏼
