BMW has ruled and reigned in the sport sedan category since they created it back in the 1970s. What they’re able to accomplish today is nothing short of miraculous. What if I told you it’s possible to have a brand new car that does low 13’s in the quarter mile, 4.2 seconds 0-60, carries 5 adults, pulls nearly a full lateral G, and gets 33mpg on the freeway for $48,195? Welcome to 2017. That’s a 2018 BMW 340i with a Stage 1 Dinan tune. And zero options 😃.
Luckily mine was used so I didn’t have to spend nearly that much but I just picked one up after a LOT of shopping. Behold:
It was such a great deal I took a one-way flight to Burbank and drove back to Utah 2 weeks ago.
This Friday it’s time to hit the drag strip and get some stock numbers so I can see how big of a difference the tune makes. Did I mention that on the 340i you get 40Â extra horsepower? Good times.
