nvmaddog What are your impressions between the 235 vs 240 since it has a different engine; Does it feel drastically different?

3 things have really stood out for me the past couple of days vs. the 235 while driving the 240. The technology aspects are much better (obviously), wheels look better, and the engine noise is more pronounced. The latter could be due to it being a vert, but the growl is substantially more noticeable in the 240, as are the downshifts.
Other than that there is not much to tell one apart from the other (from behind the wheel), and I am fairly certain 0-60 and 1/4 times would be within 1-2/10ths or so of one and other. The 235 was quick, so is the 240. The real upgrade that makes it very much worth it is the new i drive, and the new wheels. I know it is petty, but I absolutely hated the look and color of the old orbit wheels.

Loved it as well. (I used to build and race SVT vehicles, so the RS holds a special place in my heart)
After HG replacement #2, decided it was time to let it be someone else's headache. Every mile behind the wheel was straight up worth most of the aggravation though.
