Lastly i have heard/read that BMW will be offering the 235 as well in a AWD....will this come to the USA? I would realy love a tight "LITTLE" car with AWD here in NJ.......especially a hatch..but us USA cat's seem to never get the BMW hatch. Maybe not as sleek as a coupe but i do believe the sales would warrant it to come here...Just as Subaru...there hatch STI is there top seller , with much larger sales than the sedan with that bizare wing....reason i never bought there sedan...and after driving a BMW for the last 3 years the Subbie just does not cut it anymore. I no i have test driven every STI there is.
The steering is electric, it takes some getting used to! In 'Comfort' its very light, but in 'Sport' it stiffens up and feels almost hydraulic.

The tyres aren't runflat, they can be specced though.

Yes, the M235i will be going to USA! For some strange reason the M135i isnt' I still cant figure out why not though!!

The Subaru is not going to be made any more, so that says something.
