The M will be a little harsher for a daily, sure...but that's kind of the beauty of the M as having the capability to be a comfortable daily driver while also being able to fill a dual purpose as a weekend track car as well. Honestly I find the M very comfortable as a daily with a proper setting. That's the thing, there are tons of ways to adjust the feel/drive of the car and you can make it as comfortable or as smooth of a ride as you want, or sporty as you want with full traction off and sport+ with D3 settings. Comp pack makes it even more refined and what I feel is a perfect balance to the car. At the end of the day you have options and choices always, and it's a good thing. Not everyone will see the value in the M or the experience. But if you are one to tune/mod, and value performance...the //M will always be the better platform as it just has that much more potential as well as being a better basis to start with. |

I had a 2016 M4, then after a brief stint with Audi, I'm back with a 2019 440i Gran Coupe with M Sport. I can't believe how much better the steering feel is in the 440i versus my old M4. BMW fixed this somehow. Chassis feels very sorted and much less jarring than M4. Transmission does not have the urgency of the DCT but other things like creep mode are much easier to live with. As a street car, I could not be happier.

What color is this? I've started another M vs non M and stumbled on this thread. Lot's of good stuff here. I would settle for the 435... the combo is perfect!

Now with the M3 CS I can tell that something has changed since. Sport + isn't as numb as it used to be. I'm still breaking the car in, then it will hit the track to see if comfort mode is still king. Back to the topic at hand, I've now owned 2 F30's and 2 F80's. I can't say if the F8X is for everyone, but I know when I look at a nice 340i or 440i driving down the road, I can admire it, but I have yet to regret moving to a M car.
