TBH I don't get a lot of BMW decisions either

E.g I don't get why the 335i gets twin exhaust while more powerful 335d gets the dual left handed pipes... Unless there's another model in the pipeline.

IMHO something changed between the concept and the production 2AT that shifted it from elegant to a little 'meh' with stretched back eyelids. Just hope the regular 2 stays RWD.

Well the more they sell the more profit the more the chance of a halo car - it's a bit of a logical fallacy but I hope that's the case.
I like the joke, just wish it didn't apply to a Bimmer.

Same thing with the tailpipes and the 135 versus 335 - never made any sense to me there either...
