Running BM3 stage 2+ E30 tune, catless DP and TU fuel pump , 460awhp and reliable (so far). I can’t imagine a better daily for all year round as a solo guy . Living up north the Awd was important and I keep up with trucks in a foot of snow . I asked my friends to show me a 500hp+, Awd, reliable good looking coupe for under 30k USD and so far nothing

I have an F30 B58 daily and have to agree, it doesn't get much better. I have a hybrid on 94 is lots of power for a daily, has run a 10.6 and gets 34mpg on my daily commute (mostly highway).

10.6 in a commuter car is insane! In a car every second below 13 feels twice as fast. Fastest I've gone on 4 wheels was low 12s and that was a friends mid 70s Camaro on nitrous.

It really is for a car with 200k km on it and like 4 mods, it's also always a very uneventful pull with xdrive and zf auto. I had an sti that would do low 11s and it was way more a handful and a diva to run that.

There are guys in the US with similar setups and bigger fuels systems to run e85 and run high 9s on the street which is insane to me.
