First, thanks for the insight. I'm by no means an expert and my perceptions is all I have to go on. NA just felt more consistent and the heat soak/turbo lag is much more perceptible and discouraging to me.
You are right, I probably would have been more suited to a more performance oriented car. The m235i is a great car for all the reasons you said, but as you mentioned is not on the same level as an M even if only minimally. When you start to consider where the prices on used M cars are, or even used caymans, which are by all accounts better driving cars - it makes you wonder if you would have liked something else a little more.
