Killing time waiting for M340i reviews
They already tested the 3.3L genesis g70, and it scored well in the majority of their criteria, and you can get one for less than 60k. I'm not sure there's any point waiting for the bimmer anyway. Apparently Korea builds a better German-style sports sedan.

Also before the "IT'S STILL A HYUNDAI" comments come in. I think Hyundai have proven themselves well in the last couple of years, and don't mind. All I care about is how good the car is.

I did test a model 3, not performance, but the long range awd, and while I did enjoy it, I couldn't get past the interior and touchscreens, and this vehicle will mainly be my wife's and she doesn't like the look and doesn't like that there's no buttons in the interior. Its a very nice car, but doesn't fit our needs, but should be interesting to see what Tesla does in the future. We will be interested in seeing what other electric cars both Tesla and the germans release, but my wife and I aren't ready for electric yet.

That said, today I saw a nicely maintained e39 m5, and I shamelessly gawked at it until it was out of sight. Sounded phenomenal too. Good old school v8 growl. People were probably watching me, and thinking, "whats the big deal with that old bmw anyway?" Lol. |

Lol. I actually stepped into a Hyundai dealership to test drive the G80 or G90 I forget.. what's the performance model?
Anyhoooo the salesman was asking me more questions about my M4 than I could ask about the Gxx car, and said he prefers bimmers, and had a 7 series. Welp, I didn't get to test the car since they had none available. But, interesting atmosphere, balloons and crying babies!! Lol! They need to up their dealership game around here to promote the right consumer experience. whole different experience at the Porsche dealer. Last edited by BigSky702; 04-19-2019 at 08:20 PM.. |
