2024 M440i Xdrive Gran Coupe (mouthful) in San Remo Green
Bm or audi then?
Is it true Audi has so many issues all the time? I’ve been eyeing the 2020 Q8 and I’m worried about the alternator just giving up while you drive… Now eyeing the X7 instead. In the Audi subreddit as well and man so issues, not sure anymore.
What interior did you go with? I have the same car on order with the cognac interior. Production week is scheduled for next week
I went with Mocha Vernasca. I was between that and the cognac, but I have a Doberman and figured the darker interior would help hide the inevitable dog hair between details
Ah that was my second choice. I bet it looks slick
Both colors are nice
It’s ridiculous how beautiful that is
It looks very cool. Enjoy your safe rides.
Holy f**** she’s beautiful! I have a M440i in 2 doors and I’m tempted to trade it in for the grand coupe because we just had a kid, but I was torn because the GC looked less sporty to me but this picture man, you just changed my mind ! Do you have the new iDrive 8 with the large screen?
Congrats and enjoy! 🙂
I have this same model year in Portimao blue metallic with cognac sensa tec interior and the black-out shadowline package. I waffled between that color combo and the one you’ve chosen as my no-contest top choices, so I know your car is absolutely beautiful (that said, I’m also very happy with my choice). I’ve driven Toyotas for years, and although they are wonderfully reliable machines, they aren’t terribly interesting to drive (note, I’ve never owned something like a GT86, so…). The only thing I don’t like about this model year is the steering - it doesn’t convey a lot of road feel, but IMO, that’s probably ok for a daily driver. Anyway, enjoy this lovely machine. It’s incredibly fun to drive. p.s., I may have to look into the Ninte front splitter you’ve added - very cool. Cheers!
Wow this looks nice. First time seeing the 4 series in gran coupe form. I’m guessing you must’ve came from s5 sportback?
Nice! Congrats. Here’s wishing you many happy miles together. Audis are really sweet but personally, even as much as I love ‘em, that BMW high-speed stability/composure … I always miss it.
What led to the change? What do you think of the driving experience, Audi vs. BMW?
Sick car. But is it a coupe if it has 4 doors?
4 door. It’s the Gran Coupe, so comes as a 4 door hatch
Sweet, manual or auto?
There is no purely manual option for this model year. 8-speed auto. Paddle shifters are included, so some semblance of a manual driving experience can be had, but frankly, the 8-speed auto is a beast and shifts so clean, I’m not sure why anyone would care about the paddle shifters.
The auto gets the job done perfectly
May I ask what body kits did you use for your m440i?
No body kit. Everything is stock except for the front splitter from Ninte
