Has anyone here come from M3 to X4/40i?
I am considering getting an X4/40i.
I like the space for my sports stuff but the car handling leaves me at a loss. Please... any feedback would be appreciated. The M's are very special cars but will I find happiness in it in the long run? Or should I consider a 550 Thanks https://x3.xbimmers.com/forums/images/smilies/frown.gif |

I’ve come from some well handling cars
v2 CTS-V, GR STi, and a few others. This is an SUV. It rides higher and therefore is going to have more body roll. Although, it didn’t have as much as I expected. The suspension isn’t anything to laugh at by any means, and the AWD helps the car tremendously. I’d consider 2 things: 1) waiting for the X4M. 2) if you do decide to jump into the X40i, get a few items; A) Lowering Springs (H&R makes some) B) wide wheels/tires C) a rear sway bar. I got one for my XC60-R Polestar and it was like a brand new car, virtually eliminated body roll. This is the one I got for my Xc60, which was just abeefier one with stiffer bushings and man what a difference. I’ve actually heard that stiffer bushings like these will help on their own. https://www.elevatecars.com/store/vo...-sway-bar.htmlEnergy Suspension 9.8105R End Link Grommet https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CN5GEA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_cWc3Bb7XYX5Z0 Last edited by DBAX4M40i; 11-02-2018 at 05:55 AM.. |
