The BMW 3-Series was once the dominant force in the compact luxury sedan market. Replacing the old 335i, the new modular-build straight-six 340i is the fastest 3-series money can buy, short of the all-out M3. It turns out 322bhp and 332lb ft, it’s hooked up to an unflappable (optional) eight-speed automatic gearbox, and it can make the 3-series go hilariously, stupendously quickly.

Thanks for watching.
