Like us yet another fellow 2addicts forum member Donolotti also feels there are not enough owner posted M235i videoes on YouTube. He very recently posted some cool new videoes. Check out the one where he cleaned his AW M235i, the car looks awesome in this video! He's d81e on YouTube.

Thanks for contributing, your videos are cool

Even now when I see a Nissan GTR , I'm
Haha, I get this question a lot.

Taking delivery of the GTR was really special for me since I had been saving for one for many years prior and knew pretty much everything about the car. Found the perfect example and had it shipped to me in AZ. I owned the car for four months, and even though I didn't get a lot of time to drive it, it was a very special occasion every single time. One day when I actually have time to make use of an 85K+ car, I will buy another.

Honestly, while the GTR is ridiculously fast once it hits boost, daily driving it wasn't more fun than the M235i. I actually enjoy daily driving the M235i more than I did the GTR due to the low end torque on the M. I hate to say it, but I do miss the attention the GTR gets. No one seems to care about my M235i except me

The attention you received in your GTR had to make you feel like a superstar. I can imagine people driving wrecklessly in an effort just to get close enough to see your GTR and snap a photo or video. Kinda like paparazzi?

Regarding no one caring about your M235i, come across another M235i on the road and see what happens
