Hi guys!

Thanks for the help for some forum peep that helped me decide to get a 330i 2017 or a 2016 340i

Seems that I got my hand in the 340i! loving it so much now!

if any owner of 340i can give some tips to take care of the car since its my first 6 cyl BMW please comment down!

Congrats, know you will enjoy it.

Beautiful car, congrats. That B58 engine is unreal ! I see you are in Canada, get the M Performance 2 (MPPSK) sometime in the future and you will love it even more !

Dinan or AC Schnitzer for a small drop, H&R will drop slightly more.

MPPSK is fine for warranty concerns. Aftermarket tunes are more bang for your buck though. I'd say drive and enjoy it as is for a little bit, at least a couple months. Get a feel for the car and it should give you a better idea of what mods/upgrades you want to tackle first. Congrats and welcome!

Drive it awhile before you do anything to the power train and/or suspension.
