I wonder if the less weight up front from the engine will make much of a significant difference in handling between the two cars. Can't wait until they have them in dealers to test drive the two.

So do you have to get leather in an m235i? I've been lurking and was looking at placing an order but I wanted Senstatec just because I felt it would last better and would be better suited to me than leather.

But the configurator begs to differs! But then again, the 2 series website also mentions things such as heads up display

I would be very careful of drawing any conclusions based on published weights until the weights have been independently tested. There are many variables, including weight of fluids which may or may not be included. This may partially explain the differences in weights between different parts of the world for nominally the same car.

This 2 series is a MUCH better looking than the previous 1 series...
Maybe it's just me, but the one issue I see nowadays happening with current BMW models is that it does not create enough incentive for(already) BMW owners to change their vehicles... The BMWs are very similar and they don't jump out... I'm driving a 3 series...if I ever decide to replace my car down the road with a similar newer (class) car, my options are : 4 series, 2 series, & the same 3 series...to me, they are all the same, specially the interior...so what happens if one decides to have a different BMW than the one I'm driving & can't afford the 5 & 6 series? should they be looking outside for an Audi or M-B? Isn't that killing marketshare in a way and at the same time losing existing clients prospect for BMW? I think they should have designed some different looking styles between 3, 4, and 2... 2 might have a different story but the 3 & 4 are plain copy! |
