I got no dog in this fight, I made my choice for the 235 and don't regret it. Choices are good and BMW gave us 3 of em in the 2 series alone.

That said, I don't think these 2 things need to be or should be mutually exclusive. Faster can be funner and more engaging too.

Its one of the reasons an E9x with the S65 V8 is so high on my next car list when my 235 lease is up.

No turbo, needs to be wound out, fun to drive everyday and sounds sexy as hell at cold start-up and at 7k rpm...
