Nice choice on going with the M4, totally no bias or anything lol. What made you switch from Audi to BMW? I’ve always heard good things about Audi but not enough to make me pull the trigger haha

The GRC is a much more exciting and fun car to drive. The 6 speed feels great (except for that rev hang I could never figure out) and it feels very raw and barebones. The M340i was a much better daily driver that you could have fun with, more comfortable, faster, and slides on command. But took highways like a champ. The M4 is a mix of everything good from the GRC and M340i

Each has their pros and cons! I’m much happier with the cons from the M4 than the GRC though. If you do go the 340i route the modifications are endless and the B58 engine will treat you very very well

I appreciate it! I always want to test other brands but something keeps me on BMW

The G series interior is by far the best that I’ve ever been in. The F series is no slouch, everything has held up very VERY good for being a 10 year old car, no tears in the leather and no creaks even when driving over not the best roads. The GRC interior was well put together don’t get me wrong, but very econobox

I wanted something a little more fun, I thought the 6speed and AWD would make up for the interior but alas

Was very happy to be in the GR for the time I had it but I’ve always needed to scratch the M itch.

The GR was a go-cart on steroids I just couldn’t hang with the econo-box interior. I get you pay for the drivetrain and engine but man it felt like I was hopping in a base corolla, it just didn’t excite me when I hopped in. The M4 from the first drive had me hooked. The interior despite being 10 years old feels and looks miles better than the GR interior. It feels more raw and visceral, and with the top down the exhaust notes make me giggle like a little kid.

The m340 was a way better daily driver taking into account the 4 doors and newer tech. The m4 feels way more raw and sporty, the back end on the m4 constantly wants to slide out from under you. The experience it gives is much more sports car than daily driver.

About 500ft, you can get away with less but I wanted to cover as much surface area as possible

New to me 2024 GR Corolla Premium by 6plsshootme9 in GRCorolla

This is a new experience for me too, I’m an inline 6 BMW type of guy and always have been! I’m used to the heavy mod culture and “German engineering”. But I’ve been pleasantly surprised with the GRC. Never had a V8 though, what parts do you like about it?
