Pics n short review of F31 340i MPPK

JR70 · 04-15-2016, 01:46 PM

Had the car for a week now. First impression was holy smoke i gonna love this car

I checked all the boxes i could find specing the car and topped it with M Performance stuff crowned with the MPPK installed before pickup.

Sadly the M Performance springs and sideskirts dont arrive to Sweden until next week.

Anyway... Ive been reading like every post on here last couple of months while waiting for delivery and I must say I dont agree with a few things ive read.

1. Suspension is perfect (ive been in sport + 24/7)

2. Steering is great n i really like it.

3. Runflats 20" Pirelli feels good

4. Xdrive gives the traction i want in starts and all over.

Im having a hard time believing MPPK "only" gives the car 360 hp. Feels a lot more even tho i havent redlined it yet.

Sound is fookin awesome!!!

I gonna keep this car until BMW makes a more powerful touring.

* car is a tad dirty but hey i drive it around like i stole it....

beautiful car. really wish BMW NA would import the 340i wagons! will look great with the suspension once you get it!

since you checked all the boxes on the order, do you have any future plans for it? the wheels look great on that color car.

Congrats! I'm looking at it with envy until I get a few of them performance things on it. Mad jealous of the forged wheels

Nice too bad you didn't get the hat trick, you got a monster wagon with all the right set up. Some day I hope the rink would let me drive the Zamboni.

The car looks beautiful! Still waiting for the MPPK in the U.S.

Excited to hear the MPPK delivers good power. Hopefully someone puts their 340i on a dyno so we can see what the official gains are.

DrifterX · 04-21-2016, 10:22 AM

Any video(s) of how your car sounds?

goj · 04-21-2016, 10:37 AM

How soon can you get us a 0-100km/h time?

Hi, i gonna try to make a vid during the weekend, but i honestly dont think it makes the sound justice on a vid. I tried with my phone n it kinda sucked lmfao...

Today i parked side by side with a M4 stock exhaust put mine in P and went full throttle in Sport+. He did the same and we both said mine had the louder n better sound. So there u go hahahaha
