Decided to complete the interior and pulled the trigger on the M Performance steering wheel. Definitely finishes off the look.
Washed it up last night and went for a 100 mile drive early this morning in rural Pennsylvania. Ripped through some mountain passes... this car continues to impress me.

Time for more!!!! Just talked with the guys at GMP Performance to get the 340i ready for 2019....
The plan: Dinan sway bars Eventuri intake Brembo high carbon rotors Hawk Street Race pads Castrol SRF fluid Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires Plan is to run this set up for a little, then start looking at flash tunes. I really like the set up from Mission Tuning and a brief email chat has me thinking that's the direction I'll go. Updates and pictures to follow.

After much thought and deliberation I opted to go for the MPPSK and I had it fitted up earlier in the week.
I was also strongly considering the Mission Performance Stage 1 tune, but I chose MPPSK due to the factory warranty, and once that's up, I'll be going with a downpipe and the MP Stage 2 set up. I was also considering running my AWE cat back instead of the BMW system, but I ultimately went with the BMW system so that I could try it out and see how it runs. The short term review is that the AWE is hands down the better system, but the BMW system is nice, and having the dual valves is pretty cool - although I'm always in Sport+ so they're always open. The torque and power gains the from BMW DME flash are very nice. They're very evident under heavier throttle input, yet subtle in terms of overall driveability. You can tell BMW really put thought into it. I'm looking forward to my trip to GMP in a few weeks to have the Eventuri intake, sticky tires and brake set up installed... she's coming alive for the summer season!! Pictures to follow!

When I bought the car I was working as a sales rep, driving 25-30k miles per year. I couldn't justify an M-car with those kind of miles...
Six months after I bought the car I changed jobs and now I ride my bike 1 mile to work each day... life is funny like that. Anyway, so here I am with the 340i... I've considered trading it but it's such a loss right now to do so. I have my eye on a 718 GTS, I think that will be the move in a few more years. I'll enjoy the F30 for now.
