The M340 is so many cars wrapped up in one. It’s the perfect all-around daily driver. It’s your weekend canyon carver. It’s your occasional track car. It’s your drag racer. It’s your luxury car for a night out on the town. It’s got room for the family. It’s a tech lover’s dream (if well equipped). It’s your all-weather mountain mobile. And it’s your (amazingly) fuel efficient commuter. I had a 06 330XI, 16 340i XDrive, and now a 21 M340i XDrive. Never owned a better car.

I really like your calm demeanor and the lack of yelling to convey how you feel about the cars.

Love these reviews.

Crazy how underrated is this channel!

Love the 340i vs rs3, love both of this cars so it’s great to see em side by side.

The intro, the quality, everything about this video is a W. 🔥

[jeffreyxing]

4s 0-60 on wet asphalt is just insane for the price range and comfort of these cars. I'm looking into buying one of these two in the future, but this video makes the decision even harder 😂

Man, your intro, quality review and excellent editing is second to none. Keep up the great work!

The RS3 engine is hand built by the same team who builds the V10 for R8 and Lamborghini Huracan. Lots of same internals. Hence why the 5 cylinder sounds a lot like the V10. Expensive drivetrain that’s a masterpiece.

Mate… this was such an enjoyable video!! Incredible content, really top tier.

I was surprised at how little subscribers you’ve got. Keep it going and I’m sure you’ll grow coz you deserve it buddy. For me I’d have to pick 340i, been looking into them now but you’ve sold me to 340i for my preference👍👍 thank you!

Best review between these fantastic cars I have seen. I love both these cars, I can't decide they are that good!

[Sunny-mcfe]

Rs3 are rare and work of art. B58 will be second choice tho. Still a amazing machine. Wish we got newer rs3 in CA. Good video.

[shonwilliams]

You have your reasons, but still should should be M2 vs RS3, M3/M4 vs RS5, or M340i vs S4.

Finally, someone that places the L/100km for fuel 8:54

A stock 340i (B58) engine can easily handle more power when modified than an RS3. However, the RS3 is more exclusive, unique, and will hold its value much better.

Great video quality. Amazing in action shots! I've been watching your videos for some time now, the potential of the channel is great and you look very humble! Non the less the video provided great and detailed comparison! Keep up the good work!

[Samuelsam]

The quality on your videos is insane, keep up the good content!! 🔥

[Kujashin]

Great video! Im actually stuck between these 2 cars as my next daily. I've been a VAG consumer for years and was thinking maybe I should try something different. I'm really comfortable with the MQB platform that the rs3 offers as I have an E85 stage 2 golf R right now. I'm definitely going to be doing power mods no matter which I get, which is why I was leaning toward the rs3, but like you said, the m340i being rear wheel biased awd just makes it so much more fun

[omegasak]

Thanks for this great video! Gotta love the fact you took the similar color as well for a fair comparison. I would love to see wallpapers of that M340i, it looks perfect!

M340i my realistic dream car hoping to get one this year

[Jack-frbk]

From someone who traded in there m340 in for an RS3. The RS3 is superior in every way.

[mbferrariQV]

I have a 21 M340 and love it but can't go wrong either way as you said.
