15 years ago my first luxury car was a naturally aspirated BMW 328. I’ve owned many 3 Series including the turbo 335. Three years ago I walked into BMW looking to score a new M340 sedan. They only had two, both spec’s the way I didn’t want them. I test drove the X3 M40 for the first time and it was love at first drive. Even three years later, it’s a fun daily but also has room for my family and their stuff. Ok, I realize we aren’t talking the HP and price of the AM, but you get the picture. For me it was a blessing! 😉
