Thundernight M240i on 795M Perf Wheels
Greetings All!
I'm not exactly new to Bimmerpost, but it's been a while since I was active. I originally joined via 1-addicts back when I ordered my "Year one of the 1" 128i. Well, last week I picked up my new M240i and I've been blown away by this car! I was going to order an M2, but when I saw the production pics, I just couldn't come to terms with... you know... the looks. The first time I drove an M240i was at the BMW Performance Center in Thermal. After several timed laps on their autocross track, I knew it was my next car. (I also got 2nd on the podium ) Anyway, I wanted to share a few pics of my 1 & 2 before I part ways with my 128i (Will eventually post for sale here soon) M240i Impressions:

Great pics, enjoy! That BMW sunshade should fit in the 240. I'm using the one from my E92 coupe. Not a perfect fit but very usable. Looks like BMW doesn't offer one yet for the G42 platform on the website for BMW accessories. I don't think I've seen those wheels yet. They just add to the unicorn status of these cars. They just aren't out there. I've yet to see one in my 3 months of ownership.

I live in Los Angeles and I've only seen 3 G42s on the streets here, which is almost unheard of. I've seen far more Rivians and Lucid Airs than 2 series here. Mine is the only TM one I've seen outside of the BMW Performance center!

No, they are a port installed paid option. They can be added to your build sheet with your order.

Initially I was going to order the 795Ms from getbmwparts or another vendor but after thinking through it, I had nowhere to store the factory wheels and another set of 893s was already posted for sale here somewhere, which I'm not sure they ever sold. So, I just bit the bullet and ordered them. I'm very happy overall though. They look amazing on TM!

I am considering buying an M240i xDrive and cant find any information on adjustable lumber supports being a standard part of the sports seats. Does your car have adjustable lumber supports?
Also did you consider any other colors? I love Thundernight but am also considering Portimao. Any thoughts on other colors? |
