The handling of the 1M was too snappy, but the 2 Series has a longer wheelbase and the proportions are better. However, we did take the 18-inch wheels and special Michelin tyres from the 1M for the M235i, as they offer better performance than the 19-inch versions."[/I]

I must be reading this wrong because it seems to say that the 1M had an 18" wheel option which it does not. The 1M was only offered with the ZCP M3 package which has the 19" Y-Spokes.
Great news on the LSD. I hope they make it standard not optional.
Personally, I couldn't care less about the ring time. Make the car fun and joyful like the 1M and people will line up to buy it.
