We all love our m235i but to say you wouldnt take the M4 is just plain silly and biased. If the M3 price range wasnt that far from the m235i, I would of own that car...no contest
I personally would take the M4 over the M235i, but it doesn't mean every person buying an M235i can't afford the M4. Just like it doesn't mean that everyone who purchases a 528i can not afford a 535i/550i/M5, or someone who purchases an E350 can't afford a E550/E63. You'll see plenty of people who live in million dollar homes who drive the "base" versions of their car. Some people can't justify paying > 50% more for 10%-20% more car, and this is just brand specific. We won't even go into Mustang GT/Corvette territory.
My point is that a review shouldnt be judged by price/bargain as it is a car mag and not a financial mag.
Take price tag off and the M4 is the better car...imo
I know we all can afford a more expensive car but is our car the only priority in our life?
