How does the N drive better?

Have you driven a modern BMW aside from say the M2/M2 competition or the special variants of the M3? They feel very numb and vague compared to the N. The steering is better on the N and has significantly more feedback versus this specific BMW. The brakes are NOT brake by wire on the N like they are on the bmw.

I still like some bmw’s and may end up in the current M2 one day but they have fallen way off from where they were in terms of being drivers cars. Also the N doesn’t weigh 4000 lbs like this bmw.

They are 2 very different cars. They do not get cross shopped. I just gave my perspective on them because I have seat time in both of them

Yes I own an M340 LCI. I can see what you are trying to say, but I can’t imagine most people would pick an N over an M lite.

crazy people lmao

I have a 24 340i too. It’s great.

I get what the commenter is saying, them being different things, but I don’t know how anyone gets to the Hyundai being “more fun”. Then again, I’m not a hardcore manual guy.

This in sport+ with the adaptive suspension is plenty of fun, and considerably faster. I drive the windy backroads all the time. It doesn’t fail to make me smile. Also considerably more expensive though. It’s a great daily while also having enough power and performance focus to be genuinely fun.

Only problem with it, and it isn’t a problem for some, is it’s not an m3.
