The Ultimate Driving Machine. This registered mark is quintessential to the soul of BMW. Spending time behind the wheel of a BMW vehicle provides an experience that reiterates how consistent the brand has been to that statement over the years. As BMW keeps expanding its offerings one wonders if the heritage and the pride of the brand can be maintained, yet BMW has continued to impress and exceed expectations. I had a chance to spend a week behind the wheel of the all-new X4 M40i and quite frankly it hurts to have to let this exhilarating SUV go. It Features a 3.0 L turbo inline 6-cylinder engine, that makes 355 HP and 365 lb-ft of torque. Matted to an 8-speed automatic transmission, the X4 M40i gets an EPA rated 27 MPG on the highway. Base price on the model I drove was $60,450 but with options like the executive package, the premium package, Harman Kardon sound system, 20” M wheels and more, it came out to $69,170 delivered.
