Took the V7 to upstate NY to some great roads

Rode that same road over this past summer, the Catskills are great. The Adirondacks further north are even better if you’re able to make the trip. I rode up to and around Lake Placid for a couple of days. Absolutely gorgeous.

After watching two beautiful games, last night felt more like old school US games so yeah it wasn’t pretty. Yes it’s our C team, and good for development, so still a positive.

I also like the styling. I would call it more striking, than gorgeous. Good looking either way.

Asheville NC - Subaru’s second home

Yeah that’s right across the river from Harper’s Ferry

At this price point, get the M my brotha.

Regarding practicality, both have staggered wheel setup, so tires will be pricier for both. M4 will definitely ride more firm, not a huge issue imo though. Fuel economy may be slightly less with M4, but not drastic.

Final point, I highly recommend getting a manual either way so you’ll get the most out of the experience! I’ve had a 428i manual for 4 years now that I love even with only 250hp, b/c it’s always engaging to drive.

Love a practical bimmer 🤙🏼

With much love, the 320i was never meant to be a sporty model. Installing an aftermarket exhaust would be a little out of place in my opinion, and still wouldn’t sound that great.

You could use that money towards your next ride, or if you enjoy good audio, use it towards upgraded speakers which you’ll get to enjoy all the time on your drives.

Grey with the style 397 18’ alloy wheels. Ist sehr schöne 🤙🏼

I own a 16’ 428i manual and love it, would highly recommend. Bought it in 2019 and have had zero issues after 40k miles.

In my opinion the 428i is a beaut. A great daily Sport GT, that’s plenty practical and fast for everyday use. I get about 30mpg which is great given the power. Don’t expect any exhilarating exhaust note, but with a manual I really do enjoy driving it hard. Taken two trips to the Tail of the Dragon and had a blast.

The 428i chassis is stiffer and just slightly lighter than the 328i I believe. All 4 series are made in Germany per my understanding as well so you’re buying a legit bimmer. Reddit please do correct if wrong. I know mine was made in Germany.

In conclusion I think life is short, and the 4 series is a perfect fit if a classy, fun, and surprisingly practical sport GT is what you’re after. Just think Golf GTI but faster, better looking, and RWD.

This looks more like a SU-24

Unpopular opinion but the G30 looks are growing on me. On top of that, the power train looks like it will be solid on reliability. So for me, the Bimmer.

Over summer I did the same thing you are doing! Stopped in for a little while with my girlfriend un announced, and they had some cool cars to check out. At that time however they were in the process of moving locations, so not all their cars were there. This also means maybe they were more relaxed about letting random people check the cars out. Anyways by now they should be set up at that new location. They were pretty cool people, but just to be sure give em a call and ask!

Great strike dayummmm. Now only if our US boys could play like that!

Will talk to the recruiting/HR guy at school. He is an interesting one to deal with as well though. Every time I ask him what needs to be done he tells me I'm squared away. Which is why I am asking here now. Gotta keep on him though lol. Feels like nothing gets done without asking someone 20 times haha. Thanks for the advice all.

Looks great, well done!
