    I like the white one with the m performance exterior accents. Xdrive does put power down tho especially when tuned. But RWD is better in every other way.

    • @NWAuto
      @NWAuto  3 роки тому +2

      Yeah thats what I was thinking. The white also has 10k less miles.

    I’ll vote for the black one. At the end of the day you don’t need the touch screen what’s so ever. And cuz this will be your daily, I’d say go with the xdrive just to be safe (now that even Texas can have snowstorms)

    • @NWAuto
      @NWAuto  3 роки тому

      Yeah the biggest issue I had with my last car was putting power down with RWD. And with this car I plan on making 100 more hp and torque than the last one.

  • @frenna4224
    @frenna4224 3 роки тому +6

    I think I would pick the white one, since xdrive adds quite a lot of weight to the car so even if you have xdelete it will still most likely feel quite a bit less fun than the rwd model. On the other hand, if you want straight line performance and the extra road capability xdrive offers, you could also choose the black one.

    • @NWAuto
      @NWAuto  3 роки тому

      Yeah there are definitely advantages to both. Generally I do prefer cars that feel better in the corners.

    Xdrive all the way. Also of course a tune car would beat the 340. But mind you with basic fbo your 340 could make alot of horsepower. The B58 engine is just a Beast.

    • @NWAuto
      @NWAuto  3 роки тому

      Yeah the 340i with stage 2+ is making over 500 torque. Thats the reason I decided to sell the 335i even though I really liked that car.

    The blue brakes are upgraded MSport brakes, M Performance Big Brake kit only comes in Red, Orange, and Yellow. I know because I ordered it from the M catalogue and had it upgraded to my 340i after purchase. You were right, it was very expensive!

    Rwd. Add interior bits you want. About $1500 for the bits I saw in the video. You could hold out for another grey metallic...the white is nice too. Especially with a dark window tint and black wheels. I don’t know about lowering the x-drive cars. They sit higher stock as it is. They are heavier and have more parts to fail. $$$
    If you drive like a sissy and want the security of AWD and only care about straight line performance....ha, just a joke folks, don’t cry 🤣😂🤣

    • @NWAuto
      @NWAuto  3 роки тому

      Unfortunately I just found out the RWD one sold. If the xDrive one doesn't sell then I'll probably buy that. Or else I'll just have to keep looking. But I can't find any other 340i with the M performance brakes. I checked all of Oregon and Washington. I might have to look at other states.
