OP, first, congratulations on the new car! It looks like you have a lot of experience w BMWs. I was seriously considering Mineral White on Terra, but am now not so sure. What's your experience w MW vs. AW? Although saddle brown goes great w white cars, I'm not so sure about Terra (a little darker and browner) and perhaps basic black interior w/b better for a white car? I'm also considering MG on either Terra or basic black. Would appreciate your thoughts. Enjoy the ride! The M235i is the best design BMW has out there right now!

Thank you for the write up and appreciate the pictures. I couldn't agree with you more, it's a great little package and really all you need for the street..
Have fun and I look forward to seeing what kind of mods you end up doing!

Great review and congrats!! I'm on the fence on wether or not to downsize for this little car. I currently have a 11' 335 m package e90. We just bought an SUV so the room isn't the issue anymore. I just think this would be a fun fast little ride. In your opinion do you think this is quicker than a 335 with PPK on it. Essentially I think that's all this car is, the n55 with the PPK straight from factory. BMW states 4.8 0-60 times but in my opinion I feel BMW always states .4-.5 seconds slower than actual times. What's your take? Thanks!!

Agreed. The rear is my least favorite view of the car. I also don't like the way the trunk lid integrates. Otherwise, looks and sounds like a great car. |

In person, I believe it looks a lot better, especially if you stand back and give it some room. Just my opinion.

Congratulations, it's a great car. Yesterday I bought a 328 M Sport. While paperwork was bung prepared I took the one M235 on the lot for a spin and absolutely loved it. If the kids had already left for college, I'd have bought it instead of the 328. Nothing against the 328, I love it and, for now, I need 4 doors but the M235 was fantastic. Enjoy it - I'm sure you will.

Truthfully, I haven't spent a ton of time digging through all the menus. From what I have though, I haven't seen anything unfortunately. It would be awesome to have the ability to reassign the HP and torque digital gauges to temp or boost.

Nope - just the ///M mobility kit.
