On another note, every recent and new luxury model to come out, including the Lexus IS, CLA and BMW f30, I have felt look significantly better in person than any picture on the internet or in a magazine has suggested.

Argh the reviewer said "blue and white propeller" at the end, referring to the roundel.
Notwithstanding that gaff, reasonable review and shows a car I'd be happy to have in my stable however I'd rather wait for the M2. |

6-piston? I'm only aware of the 4-piston fixed front, 2-piston fixed rear setup (available as M Performance Brakes on the F30, M Sport Brakes on the F30, standard on the F80 M3, and standard on the M235i).

Oh he was speaking about the 135i?
I thought he was referencing the M235i. My mistake.

I saw the 2 series today for the first time. It was about 50-60 feet away from me (I could only see sides and front) - did not like the car at all. the same goes for the 4 series that stood next to it.
As I've mentioned this before, in my opinion, current generations of all BMW models just don't look well from afar. You get close to it, and you will enjoy the level of detail but from a small distance they are meh. |

I think he was hinting that the 6 pot in the 135i are better so the M235i has "downgraded' brakes since they are 4 pot

They're nuts, that car is by no means hard to look at.
