Usually drives in Sport Mode. Would rather drive a low milage E46 M3 but it's a close call.
M240i – Me: Old fart whose last BMW was an Isetta. Wouldn't buy anything larger than a 2 Series, and even that was pushing my boundaries. No complaint about the steering or the gas tank... both are big improvements over the Isetta. Major mods were removing the sun visor stickers and de-badging the trunk lid. Life is my "track"; love the road you're with. Usually drive a mix of Comfort and Sport, depending on SoCal traffic and type of road. Wouldn't look twice at any M3.
