I'm happy to announce that the 2 series has gone live (no pics unfortunately) on the BMW South Africa configurator website! My heart almost stopped when I did my daily routine check.
AND THE M235i IS REALLY AFFORDABLE AND HAS 240 kW (322 hp) INSTEAD OF THE M135i's 235 kW (320 hp)!
It's also slightly faster to 100 km/h than the M135i!
Here is the link to the configuration on BMW SA's site:

ALL OPTIONS CAN BE CHOSEN AND THE RELEVANT PRICES ARE ALSO REVEALED!!!
The full performance spec sheet for the M235i, 220i and 220d are attached below.
Prices
directly converted from SA rand to US dollar just for fun:
M235i: R503079.40 (~$50307.94) (US pricing will be lower)
220i: R366257.20 (~$36625.72) (US pricing will be lower)
220d: R393000.00 (~$39300.00) (US pricing will be lower)
If you're wondering how the price compares to other BMWs, just have a look around the configurator and compare for eg. the price of the M135i and M235i. The difference is tiny!
I apologise for this unstructured post. I was just too excited to share the details with you guys!!
