I drove about 1,000km round trip through some sections of rough roads and heavy rain and the car did not skip a beat. I can understand why these GT cars are loved by so many.
Outstanding! Beautiful GT3

Do you lease or own the M340i?

Did you compare it with the 330? The 330 is on the finalist list for my upcoming next car.

Thanks Nick!! We actually had a ‘23 hellcat Durango with low miles on the lot that we almost got instead but the wifey just liked this a little better overall (and now at least one of our cars will get halfway decent fuel economy )

Now just need to get a GT500 for the weekends lol.

Congrats! Nice seeing the new model. We have basically the exact same but pre facelift. We have kind of been debating changing it for the facelifted version. This looks fantastic and much better than the press photos. Congrats!

Honda makes the Ridgeline.

Got it. You don’t like the new Silverado.

It is a Silverado, at least by name.

Better than Ford naming its mini ev-suv the Mustang.

Sorry if my disgust at the way a car company has gone with their products hurt your feelings.

Ford using the Mustang name for that atrocious mustang SUV was worse imo, at least whatever the new Silverado is it’s still a “truck”.
