In fact, there is nothing wrong really with the time or overall performance of the M235i. It is just fine. I had a good test drive with one and it is as fast as the 1M if with 8 speed auto and PSS equipped. 1M still feels a tiny bit stronger maybe but most people would not feel a noticeable difference and prefer easy-to-go-fast character of the M235i.
There is a mis-marketing which plagues an otherwise a very fine overall package of the M235i, it is not engineered to be a track weapon and people tend to forget that. The driver here praises the car yet some gets frustrated because it is 2 sec. slower than a 1M or a TT RS! If all we need is bragging rights than those will need to wait a M2 to fix the order in the universe.

Well said..also the 235 is cheaper and personally it looks better than the 1M (again IMHO). Ppl dont buy cars cuz of some random track times
