Sweeeet!
I wonder if that's the Sport Auto or a DCT in there. If the Sport Auto is good enough for racing......WOW! Love the new position for the starter button. And see...you CAN delete iDrive and it will run!

Awesome! Thanks for posting...
Okay have to say this... Am I the only one that dislikes the sideskirts!? Is there a reason they're not built out like the fenders? Hate the look. |

Agree, those rear bumper extensions look kind of weird.

It sounds like they worked really, really hard to keep costs down. The outcome of this can be seen in the price tag. I can't think of another "factory cup" racing car available at this price point with the performance that the M235i delivers.

It's literally the ZF8 from the production car. Quotes in interviews regarding the M235i confirm that the gearbox is internally identical to the production gearbox, but runs different software.

BMW.... When the M2 comes out.. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make those carbon fiber door panels available for purchase....... Christ I love this thing. I hope the M2 has the same stance, squat, and powerful look that this thing has. I don't want it softened at all....
