I dropped off the M340i after work today, back to the ""american engineering""
comparing a 2010 MKS and a 2020 M340i xDrive isn't your normal comparison but a few notes:
1- cooled seats alone make the MKS a better buy
2- a bird shat on my car and it's so bad I feel bad for the bird more than the car I washed friday night
3- at lower speeds especially the MKS has better feedback even though it is more disconnected (probably because hydraulic vs EPS)
4- there's no ergonomics whatsoever in the MKS. I'm the only one who drove that car in the last year and a half, and after getting back into it I realized my left arm sits lower than my right arm
5- I need a M340i, donations accepted
6- I think I need new shocks, and definitely an alignment. There's no way a bigger, heavier car feels less smooth at the same speeds on the same highway
7- Overall the M340i is a great daily. I'd not order any of the active safety memes; today I was switching lanes and the collision assist went berserk because it thought I was too close to the car in front
