The only thing missing would be the Michelin PSS and that could be added later. The weight diff is only 80 Lbs.

Would it then be as fun to drive as the M235? If so, you would then get the better interior, sound system 19in wheels and in my opinion the cars looks better. The only major drawback is the car is larger but still very planted and has very little body roll.
Here is another drawback. Once you make your "M435", it will be $12k more than the M235i. Then when you add your premium package, tech package, hk audio etc, it will only be $2k-$3k cheaper than a bare bones M3, which I'm sure most would rather have.
