From M340 to M440

Just got a 2026 M440i. My previous car was an M340i, and I really loved it but I wanted to try something different but still a BMW .
I know a lot of people hate the front grille, but it’s honestly grown on me.
The biggest differences so far are the newer tech and that the car feels just a little more luxurious. Performance wise, Sport Plus feels about the same as my M340i, but Comfort mode is definitely smoother and more comfortable.
I’m only on day 2 so these are just my first impressions.

First Mods?

I’ve had my M440xi for over 2 years now, but it’s still bone stock. I’ve put a lot of thought into it and decided I’m going to keep it instead of trading it in.

I want to start making it my own.

What were your first mods and what would you have done differently?

Alibaba CF steering wheel

Got a CF steering wheel from Alibaba instead of one of those other vendors that charge triple the price. Pretty good quality

Please tell me about your G83 M4 and/or/vs G23 M440i ride quality

Ideally, I want a M440i Convertible with all the options, including adaptive suspension, desired colors, wheels, etc. It seems like an M440i with adaptive suspension is a unicorn. I can order, but I'll have to wait. I'm not good at waiting.

Enter M4--it appears that it's easier to get all the options I want and I would be all over it if it wasn't for the ride quality concerns.

The car will be used mostly for around-town, touring, etc. Sure, I'll enjoy the occasional spirited or track experience if I could, but it's not the priority.

The review of the M4 ride vs. M440i is all over the place. It's clear that the M4 will be more stiff, but what is your personal experience? What about a M4 adaptive on "comfort" vs. a M440 without adaptive?

Please share any experience you have. I will eventually go to the dealer to feel both for myself, but in the meantime, I can use some insight.

Thank you.

New G22 M440i owner — aftermarket parts recommendations in Australia

Hello fellow bimmers!

I recently purchased a 2021 BMW M440i G22 in Tanzanite Blue with Tacora Red Vernasca Leather interior.

I’m new to performance cars and aftermarket parts, so I’m looking for some advice from the community.

Mainly interested in:

  • Gloss black front grille
  • Gloss black / carbon mirror caps
  • Rear spoiler
  • Front lip / splitter

I’ve had a quick browse through places like Mars Performance, Open Throttle, Zero Offset, MJ Mods, etc., but I’d really appreciate recommendations from people who have actually bought and fitted parts.

I’m based in Brisbane, but happy to order from anywhere in Australia.

Any advice on quality, fitment, trusted sellers, or things to avoid would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

New 2026 M440i X-drive acquisition

Wife and I were looking to replace a high mileage 535i. Test drove some EV’s, they were nice but nothing special. Then drove a M440i, put in Sport mode and it was as if fire was coming out the back. Really nice cornering and responsiveness, wife liked the Brooklyn Grey and light interior. Car felt comfortable and in-control on an uneven road surface at speed, took high speed curves with ease, they couldn’t get me out of it. Purchased on the spot. Very compatible for a daily driver to tackle a challenging mountain drive commute, better than expected back seat room and trunk space for a coupe. I get 35Mpg on commute, 32mpg when I use sport mode. Car is a monster in Sport mode and even more savage in Sport Plus, but I drive it mostly in comfort mode. The Msport options with low, sleek appearance make this a beautiful vehicle.

Adjusting suspension

So I have this 2022 m440i. I normally drive it in Comfort mode. I wanted to adjust the suspension to be a tiny bit stiffer because it’s too bouncy going over speed bumps. However it doesn’t seem like you can customise Comfort mode.

If I go into Sport Individual settings, will I be able to create exactly the same driving experience as the Comfort mode but with stiffer suspension or is there some trickery going on in the background that can’t be adjusted by the settings?

Decided sunny and 95°F with no breeze was a good day to slap the front lip on. No more mods.

Only mods I've done or will do are tints (35% ceramics, all but windshield), silver wheels, and the front lip.

Do you love your M440i or M4 convertible?

How is ride? Plush when needed and sporty when wanted? Can the trunk with the top down stow at least two carry-ons (my research says yes). Can the back seat fit a child seat comfortably (my research is again yes). How is the wind buffeting for the rear passenger when the windows are down? Do you enjoy driving it? How's the chassis dynamic? Is it a joy to drive?

My last BMWs were: one E38 Euro model 750iL V12 highline and it was one of the best cars I had. Before that, I had a 740iL and another 750iL. I went to Benz S550 after and it drove like a boat. For me, nothing drove like a BMW. I was thinking about a 911 and although it can fit two carry-ons, the back seat appear a lot less roomy than a M440i.

Now then, I am thinking about buying a M440i convertible, perhaps 2024-2026, for occasional driving. Having just started to research, I already know that I want as many options as possible including driving assistance, Executive, parking, active Suspension, ventilated seats, etc. I see that the M4 edition often includes more options, but do M440i variants come with these options? I ask because most of what I have seen so far do not have many option packages.

I would otherwise buy a M4 but from cursory reading, the ride quality suffers and I do not want that.

I can use whatever input you can provide--ride quality of M4 vs. M440i, what you love about it, what you don't like about it, difference between model years, if it's possible to get a M440i with all the options (I rather not buy new if I don't have to). What other option package(s) should I be looking for?

It's a controversial look for some, but I like it.

M340I Gen 3 MPE sounds

Car is out of break in and I don’t see a lot of clips for future buyers to see how good the MPE is on gen 3. I ordered my car with it and I think for an OEM option it's fantastic but pricey. I wanted to keep my car OEM so I went with this. The backfires with the MPE are def loud enough and in sport + they mask or replicate the fake backfires I hardly noticed the speaker sounds with this exhaust in sport mode. The upshift crackle is very prominent even in sport individual. No downpipe just MPE

Cold start on the Alibaba valved exhaust.

This is a cold start with open valves. Very happy with the design and product. Although I feel a little underwhelmed even though it's catback. Still a nice improvement.

Thinking of lowering my M440i

Looking to add Eibach springs to my M440i. It will drop 25mm in the front and 20mm in the back. I've been told by the bodyshop this isn't anywhere close to "slammed" and is barely noticeable compared to OEM in terms of daily driving but is mostly for stance and style to reduce the wheel arch gaps.

I'm also adding 12mm spacers to the front and 15mm in the back to make the wheels sit flush with the bodywork.

Can I get some feedback from people who lowered their cars before. How was driving the car? Was it a massive headache?

M440i GC vs X5 m40i

Hey there!

First things first my english is not the best but i will try my best 😄

This year i am gonna get my first BMW car after driving a Golf 7 1.2 TSI 2014 for around 5 years.
I know I know these are 2 complety different cars and I really need some more pro and cons from you.

Maybe to me first:
I am 28 years old and live in Berlin germany. I am married and we have a 2 year old son(who loves big cars 😂 ) and we drive 3 times a year to my parents about 700km away. A second child is not planned for th next 3-5 years now. We saved up around 50k Euros for the next car.

In a lot of threads the people say - get the bigger car because you have a family/kid buuuuuuut I test drive both cars for vacation to my parents and back and I fell complety in love with both of them or maybe the B58 Motor 🤔
The 440i GC feels so sporty and i connect to the road so much better and is so much fun to drive
the X5 is comfort pure with a lot of power for this size and weight.

Everything fitted in both cars, even the present, new toys and extra luggage from my parents when we drive home. So space is not a problem.

Both cars would be the 2021-2022 version so the pre facelift with similar packages.
I hope i mentioned everything important.

My worries:
I am afraid when going for the x5 is similar to get a 144hz monitor where you cant go back to 60hz because you so used to something better or for my case bigger car, so my next cars "cant be smaller" or maybe its the other way around when going for the 440i I will regret not getting the bigger car.

The bmw 4 series was a dream car for me when i was younger ( f series ) and now being at a point where I am able to buy a really expensive car makes me think twice about my decision

Maybe you can help me out and simulate what would you di in my situation. You an ask me any questions if you like
