Seeking advice on what to purchase.

I'm looking to buy a new 3 series, I'd like to know which is better to buy rn. M340i G20 or the F30 340i?

I'd get the M340i. Looks way better than the G20 with all the newer tech. You just need to find after market kidney grills.

I just got back from buying an X3 for the wife and looked over the current 2021 BMW in the showroom.

In short... for 2021

The G-line of the 3/4 series has both better motors AND an amazing interior.
If you can swing the budget, good buys as the price is about the same as it was in 2015 (my year of F32 435i).

I'd get the M340i there has been vast improvements on the interior and has a nicely tuned B58.

Unless you’re planning on hitting the autocross or race track every couple weekends, it’s hard to see any reason to fork over an extra $10,000 or more for the M340i. That’s not a slight against the M Sport model; it’s more a credit to how solid the basic 330i is. It may not be the default choice in its class anymore — there are too many great competitors out there, from the Kia Stinger GT and the Genesis G70 to the Jaguar XE and the Alfa Romeo Giulia — but it’s still a solid choice for anyone looking for a blend of fun and practicality in their daily driver.
