Hate is a strong word, but there are a few things that I wish were different:

-the fuel tank is too small.

-even with the sunroof delete, there is barely enough headroom for us long of torso types. Seat should go lower.

-wish the beltline was lower - no resting the elbow on the windowsill in this car.

-Agree that all the running lights should be LED at this point for this price. They are in my '11 328i!

-Wish the color choices were better. At least offer the M235i in Valencia Orange.

-Wish you could get a 228i with Premium Pkg without the sunroof.

-The LSD is just egregiously expensive.

-The fancy big LCD in the extended instrument cluster should do more.

-Wish there was an option to skip iDrive altogether like in the Euro 1-series. I would be perfectly happy with the 2 knobs and 10 buttons that my '11 has.

-Too much gloss plastic and silver highlights in the center dash area - I much preferred the original matt plastic. Will probably back-date to the older parts at some point.
