Watch This BEFORE buying a BMW! * 1 Year of Ownership* (M240i F22 B58) 

Appreciate it! 👊

Whip is a stupid name for a car

That’s awesome! And what a sweet build concept. Definitely would pick up a clapped out e36 and b58 swap it

@MrWilhelm76 are they still that cheap? I’m moving to Germany next year and I can’t wait to buy one

Thanks man I appreciate it! 🙌

Only there for the real ones! 🙏 😎

2 series gang! And no I just had my seat belt on and all my accessories turned off..headlights and such

@@ParkerTheRapper awesome bro. I have to send mine to femto so I don’t want to mess it up. Everyone is like you need to turn off updates, with our vehicle I don’t believe that’s possible and we have to go to dealer to get done.

as far as I know I’ve never received or done any OTA updates , must be a new BMW thing since mines 2018

If you have the access to the E30 give it a spin! It’s a massive difference and well worth it, the manual sounds like loads of fun! I drove one briefly in a video once and it was a blast but it had a stage 3 clutch that was way too heavy though haha

Hi, have you had any kind of troubles caused by the tune so far? Currently I have 2019 model going stage 1 on 95RON. After 12000km I started feeling some vibrations at idle

@@rohatinandrei9327perhaps your engine mounts are getting worse. You could have unmetered air(maybe do a smoke test), spark plugs, coils. Vibrations come from a lot of things. Have you checked codes yet? It’s unlikely to be any actual engine issue.

Haha I definitely prefer the F22 over the new style!

We love to read it! What do u have done to the car?

M240i is a great all around option especially if you plan to daily drive the car, cant say enough great things and you'll defiantly be seeing a Darwin wing on this car in the future ;)

Go for 2018+ if you have the money to consider an m4 or supra I wouldn’t buy a pre lci model

this is a late reply, but my brother owns a m235i with that spoiler if u would like to see it

Correct, I didn’t understand the term during the making of this video. The assisted steering is super light over all

This one comes with the ZF 8 speed, automatic. Great transmission and it’s tunable so you can throw a flash tune on the transmission to make it shift a lot faster. The DCT is quite the experience, though on the M2.

None in sight , don’t you worry 😎

Great minds think alike! M240i for the win!

I believe it’s just regular spray paint! I bought the car and I realize there were black lines going through the brake calipers. Meaning they had just left the wheels on the car and sprayed! 🤬

2018, No regrets whatsoever on this car

I’ve personally seen friends buy other BMWs that aren’t as reliable as the b58 (high mileage n55 100k plus) and after all the necessary maintenance was done the cars have run strong ever since. As for the b58 ive also had friends buy examples that already had a big turbo installed and they are just now reaching over 100k without any major issues. It all comes down to maintenance and taking those precautions first then to the fun stuff.

@@ParkerTheRapper yea i had a n54 a while back and man was that thing a head ache even after fixing most of the things it needed and took pretty good care of it but the engine was just taking a shit so i just don’t want a repeat of that happening but i’m confident in the b58 treating me well after doing the necessary things to it

The years of research and development on the b58 compared to the n54 is VERY prevalent in its reliability. You won’t be disappointed! 😎

You could do an exhaust, change up the mufflers. You could also buy a good quality intake like MST that would give you some good intake noises with minimizing the hot engine bay air due to its closed box design.

And congrats on the new car!

She’s been a great of a ride as anyone could hope for! 68k is a great as long as the maintenance history looks in good shape, you’ve got nothing to worry about. I’m close to 75k still stage 2 and not a problem in site! It’s a great feeling knowing I can count on the car to always run great and it do anything I ask of it , again because i keep up on the maintenance, very key. Go drive one if you haven’t and try not to fall in love!

I have a buddy who have had an xdrive M235i who absolutely loved the car. The all-wheel-drive would make the launches insane as a bonus. ;)

@ParkerTheRapper I'm not concerned about stability on snow. Had Altima coupe that was very stable and well controlled. The issue is to get off the parking when it's lot of snow. Don't know if AWD non SUV's have wheel lock?

I believe it was in the middle of 2018 they added it..just depends on the build date I guess. I’m pretty sure you can code it in if you have the bigger display for less than 50$

@@ParkerTheRapper everything after 07/17 works

If you look under the rear bumper it will say MSport on the muffler

The Camry v6 will always win in the end, as reliable and fun as the b58 is , a naturally aspirated Toyota engine will last you for decades if maintained properly, I can’t say the same for the bmw unfortunately. Toyota remains supreme

@@ParkerTheRapper Professor, thank you for the answer, but do you recommend a B58 engine for long distances? For example, I have traveled 140,000 kilometers on it. Will it withstand it or not, and what is the required maintenance, please, because I love speed, reliability, and lack of breakdowns. Do you recommend the B58 engine?

Yes I recommend the b58 engine , maintenance I believe is oil changes every 10,000 miles and I do mine every 5k just to be safe

If you want reliability stay with Toyota BMW is made for people who have money

@@darkxyt4706 I got rid of BMW and its childish things and now I'm with Honda Coldwink and Nissan 🌹😅

This one took me 6 months to find ! They aren’t very common but that makes it worth the journey to acquire

I’ll take that as a compliment! 😎 thank you!

Not even close to an N55 M2 stock exhaust. But if these really are more reliable maybe it’s worth it 🤷‍♂️

@@anthonyb2990 don’t get me wrong I love the M2 but for what the B58 provides in making power and reliability I’d be ok giving up the awesome exhaust note the N55 has

I’m at 75k at this point still running stage 2+ no problems what so ever, just do ur oil changes and she’ll go forever. I’ve got friends with big turbos at over 110k miles making 800hp+ on their kill map with stock engine and a trans. Granted they had a new trans put in at like 90k due to their driving habits lol. Overall highly recommend

@@ParkerTheRapper that’s what i like to hear! Thanks for the response!

Ive had mine 7 years in may, 70k miles, not 1 problem. Get one

Now this is what I’m talking about , when it dry out it’s on 😈

Line up with the proper c6 and youll be wishing you didnt lol

With E30 maybe mid 4 hundreds?

Still in there to this day!

Nope, it’s a factory option on the 2018+ models

Congratulations! They are awesome cars!

@@ParkerTheRapper thanks I get to pick it up tuesday been watching ur vids bro

@@fullmetal1421 that’s so cool! Have you driven one before?

@@ParkerTheRapper yeah I liked it a lot, i’ve driven a lot of newer generation M440i and M340i but they’re a bit pricy, just having a B58 coupe was my goal tbh.

That a crazy story! Sorry to hear it though but the s5 are awesome cars, definitely won’t being going through any puddles from now on so thank you

That’s a secret 🤫

@@ParkerTheRapper HAHAHA thank you for the response. I saw the other video you uploaded thank you

Car is great on gas! In the times that I was really trying for good gas mileage I got around 30 miles per gallon! When I’m on E85, it’s a different story🤓

I’m 6’1 maybe 6’2 on a good day, The sunroof definitely gets pretty close to my head maybe and inch or half an inch but I have a very vertical seating position. If I didn’t have the sunroof I’d be just fine. Go to a dealer and try it out. They can’t really tell you no lol.

Im 6ft 4, plenty of room, no sunroof

I never knew that! I wouldn’t say everybody can afford these but I wish everyone could experience cars like this. Some of us have the privilege combined with the discipline to afford them. For me personally, I work at a technology company.

We can’t… most people in America are up to their necks in debt. It’s supper common for Americans to own cars they can’t afford and take half of their salaries. It’s one of the main things that keep Americans poor. I’m making about $100k per year and I don’t feel like I could comfortably afford one of these right now at all.

⁠​⁠@@ROVA00I think it largely depends on where you live and what your living situation is. Making about 100k you should actually be able to afford one of these. However 100k in NY or Cali or south florida you’re probably gonna struggle to afford this.

@@Jacob-xd3ko no way man! A car that’s over half my salary would not be a responsible expense. Could I pay for it? Yes… but what about saving and investing? I guess it depends on your priorities and how you define “affording”. If I can pay my bills, have money to invest for retirement (at least 30%), a years worth of emergency savings, and still have money for taking my wife out to eat every once in a while, and can still pay for the car an insurance, then I can afford it. If having the car means I can’t save/invest much for retirement and have to sacrifice going on a yearly trip or the occasional steak, or I am stressed about a house or cat repair, then I can’t afford it. Maybe if I was 22 years old and making $100k I would feel more comfortable spending all my disposable income on a car, but at 35, retirement seems a lot closer. In my opinion only the wealthy can truly afford a sports car like this brand new. Americans have simply normalized spending a large portion of their income into a car.

@@ROVA00 LOL funny thing is I am 22 and ordered a M240. Granted I don’t have a wife… or kids… or any bills… Totally possible. It all depends on responsibilities and what you choose to do with your money! Can’t take it to the grave with you!

@@ParkerTheRapper tysm

Haha same here, I wish I had some of those

I can somewhat agree with that, but rather than crap…a blank canvas

😳 well ya see…

same lol wonder why he doesnt like mustangs, must be because he just got a b58 and feels like hes on top of the world, started with a n55 lol gotta humble yourself, have a 2017 10r80 and a 2017 b58 mustand drives better forsure, once u hit 100-120 in the mustang vs the bmw the mustang feels like youre cruising mind u the mustand is bone stock and the 340 has kwv3s. Dont be one of those car people!

Stage 3 XHP with stage 2 e30 MHD is amazing on this car forsure

The 350s are one of the greatest sounding cars of all time IMO. Road in handful of them and man they’re a fun ride! Definitely want to hop in the GT500 at some point as well!
