Boasting a distinctive and unmistakable exterio

BMW Malaysia has released the updated price list for 2021 with a few notable changes. Prices have fluctuated for some models while some remained the same, like the BMW 218i Gran Coupe and BMW X1 sDrive 18i.Here’s the interesting part – the prior 5-year warranty and service package is now optional; standard is a 2-year warranty without free service.

Every so often, there are cars that cross our paths and leave an indelible mark in our motoring journey. We have been rather fortunate in the past few weeks, having sampled the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 and now, the BMW M340i xDrive. Not one, but two cars powered by 6-cylinders?
