The quote was about a different vehicle, but could be applied to the 230's or 240's as well.

Obviously, the 240 is going to be faster at the track, and superior based upon purely performance based metrics.

The differences become much smaller in normal day-to-day driving, especially on congested roads - and the 230 probably has slightly better gas mileage.

I based my purchase decision on how I will use the car. From a resale value, the 230 (with the options I picked), probably wasn't the best choice - but I intend to keep the car for a number of years, and it made sense to me - the person who will be driving it.
