Inside Lane M240i review

     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com


The glacier silver, which doesn't seem too popular, looks great, imho.

I would have liked something a little darker than Glacier Silver but lighter than the Mineral Grey. Ultimately, I thought the silver looked better with the blue calipers and the black interior (I would not do anything other than black). Aside from the fact that the steering wheel is on the wrong side, that could be my car in the video!

I'm picking my car up on Wednesday (finally); can't wait to see it (and drive it) in person!

This model is special.
It will be the only M240i with pre-lci features.

I am looking forward to the LCI M240i however

I saw a glacier-silver + coral red e92 335i once, it looked amazing. Very art-deco aviator-like.

I think mods should change the feature page to "Inside Lane" not "Inside Line."

Inside Line is an Edmunds brand and have been MIA for quite a while in car reviews.

Inside Lane is some (maybe knockoff) out in australia or whatever. Totally different.
