Your editor is gonna get roasted for the thumbnail lol

[quikness]

The title says V8 sports sedan but no mention of the M550.. weird

I love my '21 540i. I ordered mine with the M Sport package, and it's absolutely as fun to drive as any BMW I've owned (except for my weekend-only E46 M3, of course).

I got my 2021 540i w the M Sport package, Premium package and Extended Shadowline package. Bernina Grey exterior, Cognac Interior. Absolutely love it and it is just as fun and better than previous 3 series that I've owned. I hate it when someone compares cars from today to cars from 25 years ago, they're not the same car, markets change, demands change. This car is awesome and in my opinion, better than the E class (I've driven it several times and was not impressed by the quality of the interior nor the drive experience; it's a car for old people).

The M550i is the 4.4L TT V8 model (N63B44).

The 540i has a 3.0L T inline 6 (B58B30) based on BMWs modular engine series.

Both great engines, great car overall. Solid.

What motor trend is this? No seat time, incorrect info, all talk no action..

[drbmwjon]

Too bad a 540 is a inline 6 and not a v8

[siornetwork]

thumbnail says v8, cars an i6, make up your mind.

[zuti]

520d is still best selling version on the markets without cheap fuel.

I agree front license plate should be bad they should have something like a barcode or something where the camera or sensor is in the front of the car that let you know you're about to hit something something. They had no problem hiding that so they should be able to hide the license plate. If there's cameras in your city it should be able to read the barcode

[ModestSteve]

Why is your fly showing.... how do you not notice?

[jupitermarx]

I absolutely love this car!! in my state, we only have a license plate in the back!;)

[Endorion_YTC]

Nice! A New Jersey license plate, that's where I'm from!

[ahemgee]

Ermmmm isn't this an Inline 6 B58 ?

[car-lo]

Ok that is it! I cant watch his arms gesture anymore, arms all over the place at all times.

[marctopalian]

This video is a mess, everyone is commenting on the title but did anyone notice his fly is halfway down?!

[DerbJd]

Does it actually have a 4 litre engine or is it just another stupid sticker on the boot lid?

This is a $70k that has a state of the art plastic oil pan and plastic water pump. We choose plastic because we management wants to save 10$ per car. Yearly production is 100 000 unit so we save 1 000 000 USD. The warranty repair is in a different budget but hey dont worry about it.
