There's no debating the engineering excellence that goes into even the entry-level 430i, but charging 50 large for a four-cylinder coupe with 255 horsepower seems like a big ask.
If you're sold on the four-cylinder 430i, you've got nothing to lose by adding xDrive AWD other than the $2k BMW will charge you. As usual, BMW integrates AWD seamlessly with barely any effect on fuel economy.
We'd want a bit more oomph in our luxury convertible, but there's always a market for laid-back boulevard cruisers, and the 430i mostly delivers those goods.
We can't think of a great reason to add all-wheel drive to a luxury convertible, especially now that the 4 Series has a soft top rather than a retractable hardtop. If you had the hardtop, okay, maybe you'd like to drive it through the winter. But with the soft top, why bother? Anyway, choice is good; maybe you've got a solid reason for wanting one of these.
The B58 turbocharged inline-6 engine impresses just about everywhere it ends up, and the M440i is no exception. This is the sweet spot in the lineup in terms of performance, comfort and price.
Pairing the M440i coupe's superb turbo six with all-wheel drive seems like a great idea if your climate calls for it. Per usual, BMW only charges $2k for the upgrade, and the EPA says you'll still get more than 30 mpg highway.
The B58 turbocharged inline-6 sounds great anyway, so if you pair it with a top that drops, all the better. Sure, it's expensive, but to us there's no contest between this machine and the four-cylinder 430i. You gotta get the six.
We have to wonder what the use case is for a 382-horsepower soft-top convertible with all-wheel drive, but hey, maybe you just want to get to 60 mph three-tenths quicker. We can respect that.
