my new 2

Had it for about a week, wish I would have held out for a 235 but got tired of waiting for an allocation, I can't imagine how great this car would be with the 6 cyl, RWD and a manual.

228xi
Alpine white m sport / black sensatec
track handling package
Xenons
heated seats
HK sound
front black spoiler
black kidney grills
carbon mirror caps

Congrats! It's beautiful, and you will be more than happy with the power of the 228i.

WTF? So you have bought a different car just because you didn't want to wait? Something's wrong with you, man. Not even mentioning you're probably gonna regret this decision.

Congrats, anyways.

Looks great, and I'm sure it's a blast to drive as well ! Congrats !

I hate to say this, man, but I agree with the other poster ... if you really wanted the M235, it would have been worth the longer wait. Esp. if you might regret this decision a few months down the road.

Anyway, congrats !

Looks great! Congrats!

Hoping you don't regret it as well, but I sure like those wheels *almost* more than I like the ones on the 235

I ordered a 235 4 months ago and my store still hasn't gotten an allocation, my other car had sold and I couldn't keep putting the buyer on hold so I had to settle for 228. Girlfriend's 3 lease is up in a year so I'm planning on giving this to her and getting an M2, M coupe will fill the void until then.

No driving today, the MPSS do not do well in the 10 inches of snow.

Congrats! Although the 228 is not as powered up as the M235, the 228 is still plenty of fun. If you really need it, tune + small bolts on and you'll be plenty happy
