In other wards, on my commute to school everyday, would I notice anything different or better if I paid 2x more a month?
I wanted to drive the M4 again after getting my 235 so I could have a better comparison. I just got back after driving our dealerships M4 and it's a different beast. It's loud enough where you don't hear the synthetic sound being pumped through the speakers. It's louder, stiffer (of course), steering is a lot heavier (especially in sport), DCT is amazing (haven't driven an 6MT yet. I'm a huge believer in MT cars and I would never get an M4 in 6MT). It's very civilized in traffic and boost is quick to come on.

As I just jokingly said to 2 of our CA's.. You don't realize how much of a not-M car your 235i is until you drive an M4. It's a huge difference. Truth be told, I'll be doing everything in my power to get an M4 when they're on CPO.
