Modded G70 vs 540i

Hey everyone! For the past few months of car shopping I have been torn between a 2017+ BMW 540i and a 2023+ Genesis G70 3.3T. I recently drove a 540i that was Stage 2, and that thing moved.

Before I make a decision, I am wondering if anyone has a 3.3T on JB4 or even an ECU flash around Huntsville, AL (or even like Nashville, Birmingham, etc.). I’d be willing to drive a little way either for a ride along in your car or if you’d be comfortable with it, a little test drive. I’d really appreciate it!

Future G70 Owner

Hey everyone! I'm planning to buy a 2022+ G70 3.3T Sport Prestige in late August and this will probably be my long-term car. I've been researching them for months, but l'a love to hear from actual owners.

A few questions:

- What's your ownership experience been like?

- Any common problems or maintenance items I should know about?

- Is there anything you wish you knew before buying?

- If you modded yours, what did you do first?

- Are there any mods you regret?

- For those around 400-450 WHP, how has reliability been?

- Any "must-do" maintenance before tuning?

- Collovers or bags?

- If you could build your G70 again from scratch, what order would you do everything in?

- Anyone running the 450 WHP kit from BMS? How is it? Worth it? How is reliability?

- I also had the idea of making a custom trunk setup for dual 12s and possibly bags if I got bags. Anybody have anything like that?

And if you’ve read this far, drop some pics of yours in the comments, I wanna see em!

Thanks!
