Finished in Thundernight\u00a0Metallic, the compact sports car has been fully wrapped in a lovely teal color that extends onto the door jambs as well. Without knowing, it would be quite hard to tell it\u2019s a wrap rather than the actual color.<\/p>\n<p>The glossy black roof contrasts the main hue while complementing the air intakes, kidney grille, and side mirror caps. You\u2019ll notice the custom front splitter and side skirts are also finished in black, while the custom wheels come painted in a bronze shade borrowed from Lamborghini. At the back, we\u2019re surprised to see the trunk lid spoiler has been removed as the tuner wanted a more CSL-like appearance.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-416991\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-830x467.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M240i xDrive 39 of 40 830x467\" width=\"830\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-830x467.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-1820x1024.jpg 1820w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M240i xDrive 39 of 40 830x467\"\/><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-416991\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20467%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-830x467.jpg\" alt=\"BMW M240i xDrive 39 of 40 830x467\" width=\"830\" height=\"467\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-830x467.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-1820x1024.jpg 1820w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/BMW-M240i-xDrive-39-of-40.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of BMW M240i xDrive 39 of 40 830x467\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Gone are the dual exhaust tips of the standard M240i as they\u2019ve made way for a menacing quad system with carbon fiber finishers. The fully customized exhaust with no gasoline particulate filter (OPF) has a straight-through layout to make the B58 sound louder without being obnoxious. The impressively deep note suits the car quite nicely and we\u2019d argue your neighbors won\u2019t have a <em>(big)<\/em> problem with it early in the morning.<\/p>\n<p>All the mods have been done by British tuner R44 Performance and they\u2019re working on a full body kit for the little performance coupe. The M240i just arrived in the UK and the tuning shop says it hasn\u2019t had much time to tinker with the car, especially since it\u2019s busy with customer cars. A louder version of the exhaust is in the works, but honestly, we\u2019d have it just the way it is now.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, BMW just announced the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/05\/18\/2023-bmw-m240i-rear-wheel-drive\/\">rear-wheel-drive M240i will be going into production this summer<\/a> for those who don\u2019t need xDrive and will happily pay less to get behind the wheel of the tail-happy model.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=KgfKH8nteW8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Archie Hamilton Racing \/ YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"STRAIGHT PIPED New BMW M240i xDrive! *LOUD WARNING*\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/KgfKH8nteW8?start=260&amp;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\">[embedded content]<\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[embedded content] ADVERTISEMENT One of the first BMW M240i xDrive coupes to reach the UK has already been modified both in terms of appearance and sound.
