I then drove a used 340i automatic. I was so impressed with that engine and transmission that now I’m going to test an almost base ‘19 240 auto. The 3 is too big for what I want. Dealer will knock off about $5k on the 240 also. Still the SS is about $7-8k less and I am a bit of a sucker for V8 sounds.

You also probably won't be able to get a V8 in the near future. It's why I'd consider a mustang.
I love the throw of my gearbox, I wish the lag was a bit less. I think the b58 fixes that though.
