340i M Sport 1yr anniversary [PIC HEAVY]

jmg · 02-06-2017, 12:31 AM

It was around this time last year that I picked up my new 340i M Sport ZTR. I was looking forward to having along journey with this car. Alas, it only lasted 3 months. I wished I had taken more photos of it.

That was a beauty, if you had to get out of a 340 and into something else at least you went in the proper direction!

Definitely awesome shots and editing on your IG account!

What do you miss the most on the 340i compared to your M3? Thought I'd ask

Thanks!!! I think the thing I miss the most is the driver assistance plus package. The bird's eye is nice... But what I really miss is the rear view camera. The fact that a $80k BMW doesn't come standard with a rear camera is puzzling.

So the 340 was not good enough you jumped onto an M3 so fast?

It wasn't that it wasn't good enough, it was that I wanted the M3 sooner rather than later!

Admit your 340 sounded better than your m3
