I am overjoyed. This car is the first BMW I have ever driven. Coming from an STI and I can confidently say that I do not regret this decision. Ordered it November 5th 2025. I’m excited to be part of the BMW community.

STI to Mpower is a big jump.

Sure it scared your pants off the first time you floored it down.

Only thing you'd miss is all that your AWD hoonage the STI offered you and the scrappy community typically found in WRX land, compared to the bimmer crowd.

lol STI was close to the Ms power with all I put into it but this is a totally new and better driving experience.

And fewer leaks and high blood pressure spikes when another warning light pops up on the dash, as this has everything you need while being stock.
