Beauty is an opinion... but for sure this is different. People complain about cars w/o personality... it has a lot, as exterior, interior, and the awesome powertrain. The M440i is fantastic to drive, ready, quick and efficient too. ---- After 1 year with the M440i, I confirm everything I said. Totally satisfied ---

M440i is a beast!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Love the styling; and yes even the front grill. Handles great, very powerful smooth engine. Fit and finish is top notch. Always get stares from other drivers. The exhaust sound is aggressive and torque is smooth and pins you in your seat Test drove both the standard 430i and the M440i. No comparison. The M440i is in a class by itself.

Wonderful sporty coupe with lots of electronics. I previously owed a 2017 2 convertible and it was great, but this is better! Excellent gas mileage, powerful engine; it is just a well made car all around.

The absolute most enjoyable and most reliable car

I bought my 2021 BMW 430i brand new. Was about $56,000 MSRP. I have never enjoyed a car so much as this vehicle! The infotainment system is like nothing else, and I mean nothing else whatsoever! The handling, the ride, comfort, you name it... it's literally a perfect car! After 34k miles, not one issue or complaint. If you are thinking about buying this model, just buy it! It comes with the ZF Transmission... known as the best transmission ever produced for a vehicle. Reliable! Absolutely to the max! Ranks higher than a Toyota Camry for reliability! Seriously, this is the perfect car! The grill, I love it!!! Get compliments all the time, it's such a perfect machine. Thank you BMW, you conpletely nailed it with this car!

I've loved the drive of the car sporty and fun and amazing gas millage. on the freeway, I've been getting 35-40 MPH!!! because of the mild hybrid 48v battery. But also been having a blast with the speed of the 382 hp with the electric boost from the battery.

Love the feel of the interior seating and the driving experience is wonderful. The exterior is a sporty design and I like the aggressive grill that is under criticism by some. Overall I love the sporty look and driving experience the most. The standard features are plentiful as well Love my 430i Coupe

This is more than cruiser, its zippy and so much fun to drive with outstanding handling especially with the M package and the convertible is just outstanding engineering

Awesome Cabriolet with burdensome software

Waited about 2.5 months and watched it being built thru BMW app. Neat. Car came in but dash trim not what I ordered but ok, small detail to me. Perfect car and mechanics all working perfectly. BUT, preponderance of tech features that it defaults to are troublesome in light of no training and a instruction manual that is written by a techie. Dealer also will not let me bring it in for service/advise on how to eliminate defaults that no car should be stuck in! This is a dealer problem of course..but, BMW put those in at the factory and apparently locked them in . If you buy a BMW make sure you have at least 2 hours to go over the defaults before you leave and to install remote start, your cell phone in entirety, drive mode, lane change option, locks, etc. as you won't want to challenge yourself with that book. A shame, really, since the car itself wants to please but is laden with bloated software..

Understand the expectations from a high performance turbo convertible at 392 hp and high torque. Not a car for City driving unless U like multiple tffc tickets.I am requesting special top and calipers as well.

Started living in the repair shop at less than 2K miles. Part after part after part. Dumpster fire customer service as well. This site indicates 5 general recalls? In the first year? That should show you how awful this car is.

Elegant charm, big smile and flirtatious curving. The BMW 440i convertible is the talk of the town and the subtle sporty love of your life. Drive it, own it, conquer you inner quest. Imagine Carlsbad or the wind in your hair, as this little m4 catches everyone's eye. She's a beauty no doubt
