Side profile, the only view of this car I really like:
The super unfortunate M badge: Two more views:

Funny, cause the side view looks almost identical to ours. Probably why you like it. =P
Man those wheels in both looks and that gray color look bad. They look especially dark on that one, too. Slap some 313s on there and I bet it'd make a HUGE difference. Last edited by gregthegr8; 03-07-2014 at 03:50 PM.. |

Yeah not sure what BMW was thinking there. Those are some of the ugliest wheels I've seen in a while.

Can we talk about this for a moment? Specifically the "M-Sport" model.
http://www.2addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=954286 BMW has really, truly lost their way.

Can't wait to see where you put your PPK badge on your new 220i.

we REALLY need a 135is driver to go and drive an M235i and post their opinions. Until then...i can't take any of the reviews seriously unless the ones i've read written by 135 owners.
the 3-series and 5-series owners reviews are worthless to me.... I am thinking of going to drive it next week....if no one else goes! |

IEDEI, I agree 100%! Would be great to see a back-to-back comparison of both cars. I've asked my CA to CALL ME the moment they unload an M235i off the truck that hasn't already been sold. That probably won't happen until the Michelin PSSs are back on my car... which would make the comparison a bit more 'apples to apples'.

i don't like the look of the new interiors either. they're too 'complicated' looking....like 10 designers built it....instead of 1 or 2. |

EDIT: It also urks the hell out of me that BMW will happily throw an M on just about anything and call it sporty. They tried it back in the day with the E28 M535i and the M633csi. Both we're cool, but they didn't continue that trend...and for good reasons. It was watering down the "true" M cars. |
