I prefer the 4 cylinder over the six because the 6 carries extra weight and the 330I handles better than the M340i. People are obsessed with power and engine size and do not realize this engine makes this car ‘fast enough’.
Very Good Review Joe. The 3 series is a great sedan but i advised anyone who buys one, Get the extended maintenance/warranty and don’t keep it pass 70K miles. If you do, you are going to almost buy a new 3 series with repairs
I own the 330i in portimao blue it's a 2022 I bought it right after the LCI came out I love the way the new idrive system looks graphics wise but I just like physical buttons way better.
I’m liking the muscular chiseled front end….but what I appreciate even more is you keeping the mph uncensored so I could really get a gauge as to how the vehicle performs with regards to acceleration and braking. Through the video it’s not always easy to tell so having the visible frame of reference was a nice touch!
This is exactly why a lot of people who can afford an m3 are “downgrading” to an m340i lol. And I’m all for it. I know a guy here who just got a new m3 and no matter how fast it is I can’t get over the grill. Lol.
It's such a shame they got rid of the buttons with iDrive 8. I have a pre-LCI M340i and use my physical buttons daily. The even got rid of the BMW preset buttons, those are so handy. Brilliant idea, sad to see it gone.
Agree 100% I have a 2022 M340i and purposely bought just as 2023's were coming out to keep the buttons and more integrated looking iDrive screen. It's literally the perfect daily
Getting rid of the physical preset buttons and placing them on a "swipe down" from the top feature on new screen for the presets ... agree, bad idea IMO. I honestly feel these large ugly screens dominating the dash requiring multiple steps to actuate systems in/on the car will go away. I feel that safety will drive this as it becomes more of a distraction to me than anything else.
@@Buffaloman-k4p volume knob is there still...and agree about the physical climate controls. So many people provided that feedback that the cars that upgrade to 8.5 will have the screen controls mimic the older physical controls for the most part.
Love the 3 series! I own a 2020 330i and I absolutely love it and it's exceedingly fuel efficient for a pure petrol engine. This new 330i (love the color by the way) is nice. I'm a foglights type of guy, I think cars look slicker, graceful and just more complete with them. It sux this new 3 series does not have em. I also love that you can get red for an interior color option which you could not get with the generation I own. But I absolutely hate just hate the new screen layout and the fact BMW got rid of a lot of physical buttons. Glad I got my 3 series when I got it.
@@TheItalianDude96 So far so good and I drive it a lot due to the fact that my job is about 45 to 50 mins away going and coming. I mean I keep up with my regular scheduled maintenance as much as possible, which is how I got to experience the new 3 series because BMW lend me one. So no issues with my Bimmer but one thing I changed almost right away when I got my car was the run flats. I went with a Michelin touring tire, run flats are not particularly well for longer rides especially if you have more of a sport suspension setup they will contribute significantly to the harshness. Thankfully I have the M sport adaptive suspension to help out with comfort even more.
My niece and her rich husband bought a 330i last year. They love it! The car looks great in my driveway when they visit. I’m far too frugal to ever buy a car that costs more than $20,000, but I can dream!
German brand, Assembled in Mexico. They're charging prices like it was still made in Germany and pocketing thousands in extra profits. Buy an Audi A4, they're still made in Germany.
Joe, right off the bat, 1. Great haircut 2. Disappointed there is no designated Twinkie compartment in the bimmer 3. 32k to go and I’m rooting for you man
BMW needs to bring back the ice silver color option on the 3 series for nest year...no idea why they stopped offering it in 2023 as it's such a nice color!
Hey Joe! Formerly Golf King here. You inspired me to start my own channel doing my own style of reviews in my limited free time. I wish I could get my hands on some sick cars like you though! Haha thanks for the inspiration
My oldman has a 2023 sky scraper M550. Looks great with black wheels and red calipers. 330 is a better run about than M340. But M340 is monster performance wise.
Regarding pumped-in noise mentioned by Raiti, you can adjust its level... You can get rid of it or amplify it or let the car dynamically adjust its level
Yea most cars you can now but it's still disappointing that they can't just make the exhaust sound good itself. I know it's a tiny 2 liter but if Hyundai can do it, so can BMW.
Love my 2019 330i M-SPORT car is a blast to drive and so balanced all around. prefer the M-SPORT front and rear bumpers over these. i drive 8 is a step back from i drive 7 as well i think it feels to convoluted.
Great car from my own personal experience with a 2020 model. For 2023 however, bmw should’ve at least increased it to 305 hp same 295 ft lbs of torque That would put it on par with the step up m340i having 382 hp and 369 ft lbs of torque. Make it make sense. I mean they have touched up on everything else like the new LCI Botox facelift the fillers in the rear end. The weird gear shifter. At least give us more horse power.
The new 3/4 series are great cars. Ended up getting one for myself. Although personally, I'd take a Lexus ES for luxury over the 330i. Just a little more luxurious for a little less money
I have a 340 on order and should go into assembly in about 2 weeks. I opted for the 340 due to the B58 engine alone. They "say" 382hp but it's probably that at the wheels.
Hi Joe, all of your test drives are during the daytime. How about doing nighttime test drives to assess the performance of the vehicle at night particularly how the headlights perform lighting up the road.
Having seen a similarly specced 330 during my recent trip to the US, I can say that it looks very good, except for that black glossy plastic part on the lower front and lower rear, I thought that looked cheap. Also no buttons for climate control is not ideal imo. But I am sure that it's a great daily driver.
It's a great daily driver but like you say, those touchscreen climate controls are a problem. After 5 months I'm still not used to them and it still irritates me every time I want to change the A/C or heated seats. Of course, only a minor detail on the whole, all in all I do really like it
Great review Joe. I don't love the silver grill, I'd prefer it to be the blacked out shadow line grill. I like the gloss black rear diffuser a lot. I'm old school; I like buttons for certain features. I'd also be willing to pay the extra $8-$10K for the M340 because the power difference is worth it.
Not M330i….last October I got my Brooklyn Grey 330e with m sport pro package …extended shadowline. The LED LAMPS with high beam assist DOES Not need fog LAMPS….Thats what BMWs logoc is! The shadowline packages comes with gloss black lip spoiler! Also comes with rear privacy glass and I chose the red calipers and Tacorra red cow leather.
You need to review the new M340i next Joe! 😊 I bought the new 2023 M340i LCI a couple of weeks ago and it’s absolutely brilliant. Possibly the best daily driver?
I went with the 2-door version with 4-doors (G26 - M440i Gran Coupe) b/c of the flexibility of the 4 doors and the hatchback style opening for the boot. Agree with being just the best daily driver. Combination of performance when needed, and comfort/economy also if needed. I'd be hard pressed to pick an M version over the "M-light" versions since they've done such an amazing job lately with the _40i series of vehicles!
@@DarkJediChrisG-1425 I’m super stoked for the redesigned Camry,redesigned RAV4,and the all new AC Cobra bro!!!! They’re going to reveal the AC Cobra NEXT MONTH BRO!!!!!!!!
IMO/E, for the money you absolutely cannot beat the Giulia. Faster, handles better, same transmission and audio, better seats, and looks that beat everything in the class. Cannot wait to order my 24!
Nowadays, an entry level 3-series costs over $50K 😭 @18:35 Joe sure the king for that section of the freeway! No one can beat him. I guess he can even drive that section blindfold. 😂
One thing i am curious about is, do the rear turn signals interfere with the brake lights? I noticed there's an extra, lower portion to the turn signals, so if you have your hazards on, would the lower portion stay blinking when you are braking while the upper portion stays on to indicate you are braking? Something that i think is actually a major safety issue on our roads, and I really think it should be a law to have the braking lights separated from the turn signal lights. Other than that, i am totally loving this styling, and the interior really suits this class of car very well.
I have this car in Oxide grau or gray from Ramstein, Germany. The color looks very similar, it changes a bit depending on how the sun hits it. 😊 love the car so far.
Great review!! I actually think this one is classy and subtle!! I agree with you about the gloss black not looking good in the rear, but it does match the front.
I love both the 330i and the c300, but there's just something about this car that I prefer over the c300. To me the appearance is more masculine and the cabin looks more sophisticated. The mercedes is very elegant, but I dont need all that bling.
What would you pick between a Genesis G70 3.3T vs a BMW 330i? I feel like to get the performance of a 3.3T G70 you have to go up to a M340i and that's a lot more expensive.
In my opinion, this BMW is gorgeous. I love the exterior and interior. I don’t like the turbocharged 4 cylinder engine and no ventilated seats. That is a deal breaker for me. I prefer the 2023 Lexus IS350 with naturally aspirated V6 engine with heated and ventilated seats. Great looking car but not for me.
BMW invented the sports sedan with the 3 series. They still make the best one. The 330i is great but spring for the M340i if you can. It's the sweet spot. Great review!
do you think 19'' wheels are ok for daily driving on a little bit bad roads, ok roads and highway ? i think 19'' are to big and tiers are to small, what about you ? ( speed will not be over 180mh/h)
i own the 2022 330i M sport. The car is a peach. It's smooth engine pulls really good.. and auto box is the best in the industry. The only issue is that it is a bit small for me as I am 6.2. But looks really great in my garage
I think I like the Shark Skin color on the Camaro LT1 you recently reviewed more than the Sky Scraper Grey on the BMW. Would rather own the BMW, though.
Hey rati!!! I was wondering can u maybe do a 6 series review? I don’t think I’ve seen one yet on ur channel but maybe an m6 or a 650i I know they’re discontinued but I have an m6 and I’m in FL I’d love to meet up and let u review it 😃
I really want to buy a 3 series. Can’t decide between the 2021 M340 vs a 2023 330i. Both are the same price. I’d rather have a newer car but would never complain about more power. Liking all the newer features.
I had had a 3 series before great cars but had my fair share of issues. I was looking at some amazing looking NIO's curious other BWM owners thoughts on NIO's they look very good, premium luxury quality, massage chair and no more premium gas
bummer for no cooled seats...especially for states down south...seems under powered too with not even 300 HP...the only item carrying that car is the updated infotainment screen, which is sweet...
Dynamically opening and shutting grill seems to be a bad idea, that mechanism could fail, overheat and can even blowout engine (no parts are guaranteed it won't fail, let alone BMW part😂)

@@Another_User_Name_ true but most people that can afford to finance an integra can likely swing it for a 330i. So I can see the slight comparison to some.

Should have reviewed the M340i 2023. An amazing car all around.
I had had a 3 series before great cars but had my fair share of issues. I was looking at some amazing looking NIO's curious other BWM owners thoughts on NIO's they look very good, premium luxury quality, massage chair and no more premium gas
Are 3 series good leg space
bummer for no cooled seats...especially for states down south...seems under powered too with not even 300 HP...the only item carrying that car is the updated infotainment screen, which is sweet...
Joe you need to test the LcI M340i too !
Great review as usual. As for sound piped in car. That's lame they could have installed an exhaust that's more beefy
Love the fake vents on the BMW 3-class even though they're just for esthetics not just a bland body.
Thanks for sharing that great input on this one Luis!
@@RaitisRides Well, you're super welcome!
i miss the era when 7 series was not just a big 3 series and S class was not just a big C class 😢
I have piped in sound in my '22 M40i and I don't even notice what's real and what's fake. Some owners make a big deal out it but I ignore it.
Dynamically opening and shutting grill seems to be a bad idea, that mechanism could fail, overheat and can even blowout engine (no parts are guaranteed it won't fail, let alone BMW part😂)
Great video, I just wish lori would have hovered over that gear shifter. I wanted to get a better look.
Is a used 2023 BMW 3 Series 330i xDrive with 27k miles reliable? or a 2022 BMW 3 Series 330i 31k miles
I still love those "sculptured" instrument panel.
actually looks nice ( if it didnt have so much chrome)
That is a great point!
🇺🇸 *LOVE this NEW BMW 330i* !! *255hp sounds like fun* !! *Too many virtual buttons on the dash, deal breaker* !! *Would rather have an Acura Integra or a Lexus IS500* !! *Fantastic video Joe and Steven* !! #RaitisRides 🇺🇸
The Integra is super slow (but much cheaper) unless you get the type s. The IS500 is a beast but also like 65k if you can even find it anywhere.
Thanks Susan for sharing your thoughts on this one.
This is a very good point.
The Integra is a class lower than the 330i and the IS 500 is a class higher (more like an M340) so it's hard to compare them.
@@Another_User_Name_ true but most people that can afford to finance an integra can likely swing it for a 330i. So I can see the slight comparison to some.
Wow glad to see you coming up on One Million subs! Congrats Joe and Lori!
No ventilated seats at 52k??? Wow that is crazy.
Love my BMWs but this year passed on this for a new IS350.
Do love the tech here tho
Great video 👏💯
Nice. Wanna see the 550i
Would the xdrive with Msport be fun too ?
I pick my full specs 3 series touring in Brooklyn Grey on Monday. Can’t wait
Beautiful and my dream car.
