I was looking into getting a 2nd car after I pay off my N55 F30

And I really wanted to get a 2nd car that's manual and has similar power as a B58 or even a N55 FBO

It needs to be a 4 door so far I remember Audi S4's, 440i GC come to mind. Anything else that offers manual 4 doors?

Preferably under 30k, something I can mod to at least 400whp+

so far the only one I can think of is a 440i GC

I love the 440i!

If you only want to make 400whp and want a manual 4 door you could get into a first or second gen CTSV. A V2 will already have more power than that. A V1 you'll need longtubes, intake, and tune.

If you skip the manual requirement you could buy a charger 392 and be done.

30k budget is pretty low unless you're ok with a TON of miles though. How about a focus RS or a WRX/STI?

Why 4 doors if you already have a F30? 2017-2020 BMW M240i 6mt. Done.

Gran Coupe's only came in auto. 340i F30 (sedan), 440i F32 (coupe) came in 6spd options, but not the 440i F36 (gran coupe)

Yeah I wouldn't mind 80k+ I normally only drive to work 13 miles total and occasion 30-50 mile trip weekends. It has to be a 4 door since I came from a 2 door lexus. A ctsv is a interesting choice I will definitely consider! I don't like boats, or want to be one of them 🤣

We'll see if the interest rates go down, last time I casually checked m240's they were still 33k+ I really like 4 doors and can't go back to a 2 door. I did have a RC F but sold since it's a garage queen and a pain to get kid out of the back seat

I should have just got a 340 in the beginning but 2 years ago they were 30k and it's kinna hard to switch to a 340 especially with my n55 fbo, up to date maintenance and no loan lol

Have you seen this? It’s in Chicago. An easy flight from SF, but it would be pretty much be a three day drive home. To me it would be worth it for the right car.

If you’re seriously interested I could probably go look at it for you. I’m in Chicago.
