The 330i with M Sport does an excellent job hiding its 4 banger and weight but if having a straight six was something you considered in getting BMW I think you'll miss it. I know that while the 330i does things better than my 440i Gran Coupe, the B58 is hard to let go. I would imagine it would be the same for your N54/N55.

But if you're looking for more efficiency and a better all around vehicle, the 330i should check most if not all boxes.
I think the gap of the B48 (G20 330) vs. N54/N55 (F30 335) is a lot less noticeable than to the B58 (G20 M340, noting this B58 is different variant of the engine than the F30 340's).
