Beautiful car with transmission issues
2023 Prestige G70 Vik Black and Red interior. It's a beautiful car and I felt in love with it at first sight. It doesn't launch as hard, but when it gets going it goes very fast. The tires grips great and I feel very confident on corners. The features are great and I love the connected services. The ride is very comfortable. I wish it had full digital gage cluster.
Sadly the transmission is bad. After hard acceleration, the car jerks violently and very loudly when the transmission knocks itself into a higher gear. It is a scary experience every time, regardless of whether in ECO or Sport mode.
The fuel consumption is worse than EPA rating in city driving. Furthermore it drinks gas on idle.
I wish my car's transmission was good. Sadly it's worse than my 2016 Camry, let alone the M340i I test drove. It's a great car to look at, but not so much for spirited driving.
