Retractable, high-intensity headlight washers

18 x 7.5 front, 18 x 8.0 rear light alloy wheels and 225/40 front, 245/35 rear

Storage compartment package (front and rear doors, lidded compartment in center console, open compartment under front and rear center armrests, front and rear cupholders, storage tray and glove box)

Here is a list of all standard features of the US M235 http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Conte...ModelCode=142C

I was under the impression there were no LED accent lights aside from the corona rings, headlight washers only with cold weather package, same 7.5" rims front/rear and no rear center armrest. Unless I'm misinterpreting these features hopefully someone can clarify this.
Based on all the photos I've seen from the Las Vegas M235i drive event, the M235i DOES in fact come with the following:
- LED accent lights (there are LED brows over the headlights as well as LED light piping in the rear tail lights and LED corona rings).
- Headlight washers standard without the cold weather pack (the photos from Vegas show the car has no heated seats or steering wheel yet you can clearly see the headlight washers).
- The tire sizes are 225/40 front & 245/35 (you can read the text on the tires in some of the high res photos).

The one discrepancy would be the rear armrest. It has been confirmed that the US cars (all 2-series) are lacking the rear arm rest for some unknown reason.

Hope that helps!
