Just drove the demo m235i that my dealer received today.

It was mineral grey on black. The silver mirrors look a bit like a mistake on a grey car. Might work with red, black or blue.

It's a much bigger, more imposing car than the e82. The back of the car looks a hell of a lot better in person than it does in photos.

The car definitely needs 19's, and with mineral grey (which I ordered), might need a different diffuser.

Exhaust note was a tiny bit of a disappointment. I will definitely consider aftermarket alternatives.

It also sits a little bit high. Not sure if 19s will change that, or if it maybe needs a small drop.

Steering feel was excellent, or at least a ton better than the f30. You can definitely feel the low end torque and the ride is firm but not overly jarring.

Can also tell that the car is fairly heavy, as I swung the tail out a couple of times (although the road was wet).
