I’ve heard these are way faster than you’d expect for a 2.0T. How does it compare to your Mustang speed-wise?

According to some on here, every new BMW drives like a Buick. Would you concur?

I think it does. My dad had one as a loaner and I was driving it and he was like it sounds good. I then commented that it’s probably fake and he was like that’s lame. My father has a 135is which the neighbor across the street can hear upon start up, so you know he likes a good engine note.

Friend of mine has a 340i, which from the outside sounds like a V8. Nice burble and all, unless you remember that... and then you start to hate it.

It’s not a question, but pls gib.

The Active Sound Design makes all the difference in these things.

It does and it sounds super fake but it’s better than nothing.

Sport + and stepping on it threw me in my seat. I’ve no reason to doubt it’s ability to keep up or outrun my Mustang from a standstill.

The active sound sounds fake but it’s better than no sound.

Haven’t driven a new Buick, but the steering is lazy.

I like the Active sound design in the 28i cars. It’s really pleasant.

Apparently the G30 is a step backwards, as in the right direction, as in ... you know what I’m talking about.

This car needs an exhaust

Wait, I thought the Active Sound Design thing just played engine noise through the interior speakers, or does it fake things on the outside as well?

I thought the steering in the LCI F30 wasn’t bad at all. It was the best electric power steering BMW I’ve driven. It’s not as good as either of mine, but it’s getting better.

Those wheels are poopoo.

Why are you driving it?

It also has some tricks in the exhaust pipes. Don’t ask me how it exactly works. Manipulating the gas flow, or whatever.

Because my coworker lent it to me to pick up some supplies, and I’m glad to hear from you! :)

Why does every bro want one? Do you get the appeal?

It’s cheap and easy to drive? That’s my first guess.

They’re only cheap to lease, though. Sinking $45k on a car that everyone and their sister has is just unimaginable to me.

It looks great, I’ll give them that. A nice evolution from the E90 which also looked very classy.

how well does it hoon?

With Sport+, it’ll hoon surprisingly well for what it is. Trouble can be had on demand.
