Maybe I should go take it for a spin.

The interior was noticeably cost cut from an E-class, the ride was harsh, and the back was cramped.
But by god that engine note and exhaust barks, and the dials on the wheel were cool, and the way it wanted to kick the tail out all the time.
This was the wagon btw.

The M340i is more like the Tupe R, more competent but all business
C43 Upshifts are intentionally harsh, the exhaust note is playful and kinda savage without being MPPK440i stupid, the rev counter goes in the right direction, and the interior has a way better mix of materials/alcantara/slightly sportier seats.
Highway mileage at 80mph was within 2mph of the M340i.

The C43 was pure theatrics and I loved it but the wife not so much lmao.
