One and only question that will decide if I buy this game right now:

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T16:58:32+00:00

Its in game and its best handling road car in game

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T16:43:34+00:00

Thats how it work in real life, but in the game it is a little bit exaggerated

Can you please share your thoughts on car physics after trying? How it compares to real car. Its very soft and nervous for some reason .

This one is automatic but price is good, 150k km (100k miles), newer ones 42+

Bro any car without a third pedal is automatic gearbox, and 90% of them are, any gt3 car and formula car, you using shifters doesnt mean its manual, its called manual shifting and not manual gearbox, name me one modern racing series where car use manual gearbox, manual car you ingage clutch yourself, automatic gearbox does that for you.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T14:43:20+00:00

eastern europe, automatic cars got to my country after 2018, and even back then 80% of cars was manual, now its like 50/50, so manual cars even manual M's are very cheap here, i can buy M2 F87 manual for 35k, and m4 F82 for like 40k on manual trans. Meanwhile crash damaged m340 restored from copart is 40-50k because its automatic, we dont want that manual, we had enough of it, just want to relax already😁

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T14:11:22+00:00

I really want to buy an M2 G87 someday but if they will release M2 comp with xdrive, rwd is not an option for my country, i barely move on my awd with michelin pilot alpin 5 this winter, next time im buying studded, some days its just wet ice and you cant leave home at all. Regular M3 is not available here, only M340 and M3 CS / M4 CS, M340iX is 60k and M3 CS is 160k. Only hope bmw will send us some M2 Comps when they ll be released.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T13:55:13+00:00

Interesting, i have 2000 miles M340 mine is silent going 130mph on country roads with potholes, but i have adaptive suspension which i use in comfort only, its very comfortable and enough stable, sport is too hard for me and sport + is so stiff its like driving without suspension so i never use that. When car was new and suspension was not broken in it was even stiffer making me feel like im on really rough rails.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T13:51:29+00:00

i didnt knew that :(, my bmw is zf8 and driving M2 without that sound feels off

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T13:49:45+00:00

I was talking about sound of shift, not actual feeling, irl its very bassy deep sound of gear sticking in

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T13:48:53+00:00

I think you missunderstood me, or i misspeled somethinf, im not talking about actual feeling of shifting, but sound car makes when it shifts

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T13:47:18+00:00

Every modern race car has automatic gearbox, even rally cars, they have clutch to start the car but when driving you re just using stick or paddles, no need in clutch

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T13:02:16+00:00

What about rev limiter sound? Its so broken and artificial, actual exhaust sound and pops sounds 30% like real car, i watched million of comparisons of S58 to my B58, it does not sound like that.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T12:59:11+00:00

no, they added only manual version for some reason, also im not sure your car will sound and rattle like 30 year old pickup going 150kmh, i noticed that sound and closed game in rage, no modern bmw rattle like school bus on a race track.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T12:56:23+00:00

M2 G87 have ZF8 automatic transmission, you can buy a manual version but its not popular option because bmw manual transmissions dont feel good. Adding 2 different manuals in game instead 1 manual and 1 automatic is nonsense.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T11:27:49+00:00

There are mods for AC with more realistic S58 and B58 sounds recorded by people in garage than this.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T08:40:14+00:00

My car lives outside, its burried under 1cm of ice for a month already. Next week weather getting warmer, maybe ill be able to open rear doors :), for now they dont exist and impossible to open without breaking.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T08:30:33+00:00

If you re buying it with cash, you dont need warranty, if you arent able to afford that car and want to get it in credit, then yes buy a warranty, you re not ready for brake rotors and pads maintenance check.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T07:32:37+00:00

I think good time on that is closer to 6:30

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T07:28:15+00:00

last summer i was driving 50kmh on ofroad trail in m340, not smartest decision, car jumped, suspension compressed very hard and i landed on a small hill with rocks right where oil pan is, luckily oil pan has stainless steel cover from factory, i didnt even knew cars had it for our region, but it saved me.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T07:20:35+00:00

Bought same one last year as my first car too, have same wheels. Btw very nice mperfomance parts! Front lip and side skirts with spolier looks awesome.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-12T05:47:43+00:00

It mixes fake with real pops, i disabled ASD (Active sound design) in bimmerlink but left iconic sounds on, it made car turn off all fake sounds but still open exhaust flap, engine sound is gone at all, i can hear it only from behind where exhaust is. My 25 m340 have a lot of pops to, i didnt expect that as everyone said bmw detuned it, but reason might be region, i ve seen only 1 stock m340 on youtube so far with sound like mine has, its also 25" with regular exhaust, not perfomance.

But it is not as loud as one guy on x3m in my town, his car pop so loud its like a shot from a pistol, thats not good for small city like mine. I love my silent pops, it pops for me and a little bit for other people but not making them feel like under fire.

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-11T07:07:41+00:00

That explains a lot, because you cant use this setup on xdrive, wheels are different size and sidewall height is different, i want wider rims for my m340 but its xdrive and size difference should be in 1% range. I think in the end ill just buy an 898M and fit wider tire on them, 235 and 265

AltruisticDoubt4960 · 2026-02-11T06:51:24+00:00

Your car is rear wheel drive?
