First Time BMW Owner!

Long time lurker here on Bimmerpost and wanted to thank everyone for making my decision easier. I originally was going for the 4 series but after test driving the 2 series , I understand why car reviewers have praised it. The 4 looks great but is just too big imo and doesn't have that nimble go-karty feeling you'd want in a sporty car. I pulled the trigger and bought one of the last new 2016 M235i Xdrive. I could've ordered an M240i instead but didn't want to wait and didn't want to take a risk on how the B58 will be in long term as I plan to keep this car very long time.
Everything about this car is just perfect and it had the perfect color combo I was looking for Alpine White, Red Coral interior, and Orbit Grey rims. Coming from a 2005 G35X, this is my first ever coupe, turbo engine, sports car and I couldn't be happier! I researched a lot of cars , and comparing performance, comfort, options, price, etc this was the best choice for me. To anyone who's considering this car you will not regret it! It's Fassstt!

Thanks for the photo. I'll be looking into buying a 2er (probably 240) in the spring. I'm thinking about either Alpine White or Mineral White with Coral interior.

My 1er got put away for the winter today. It's now me and my Focus, with winter tires, for the part of the year I hate.

Enough ranting. Enjoy! It's a great color combo! I got a good look at a Z06 Corvette recently with pearl white over red and black interior, and it drove me crazy : )

Congrats! Great color combo. You plan on driving it through the winter? Does it have all-season tires?

Got my 240 a week ago. When the weather warms we should meet up for a photo shoot.

One pic of it when I went to pick it up.
