Overview

The 2018 BMW M240i Coupe is a subcompact luxury coupe offered in a single trim, starting off at a base MSRP of $45,450. For that price, it doesn't have any direct competitors in its segment. Alternatively, you could consider the Audi S5 Coupe, the Cadillac ATS Coupe or the Lexus RC 350 Coupe which are available for a similar price. Available in a single trim, the M240i Coupe offers 2 powertrains. It is a 3.0L turbocharged inline-4 engine making 335 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque. However, there is a choice between a 6-speed manual transmission and an 8-speed automatic transmission. The M240i Coupe reaches 60 mph from zero in 5.0 seconds with the manual transmission, which gets pumped up to 4.3 seconds with the automatic. The M240i Coupe manages a combined fuel economy of 24 mpg. While we're on the topic of choices, the 13 striking colors the M240i Coupe comes in really pull you towards itself.

Buying Advice

The 2018 BMW M240i Coupe is a plush and fun-to-drive car in its segment. There is only one trim offered and we would recommend getting the Premium Package. It adds some extra features including Comfort Access keyless entry, a sunroof power front seats, lumbar support, and SiriusXM satellite radio with a 1-year subscription.
