The amount of fun driver's cars on the market is dwindling and the 228i is one of the best values for a fun car on the market. Being a 228i, it gets the 4cyl turbo motor which is lighter than the M235i's inline 6 cylinder, giving it a 50/50 weight balance for precision handling.

"the last generation my favorite was the M2 obviously, but my next favorite was the 228i M Sport. That lightness and agility was not present in the M235i. The M235i was not as fun as the 228i" - Matt Farah of YouTube The Smoking Tire channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCge...QYcrnoYRMltDZg

I took things a step further and bought my 228i with all of the fun options available and a 5 year 125k bumper to bumper factory warranty that expires in March 2025. Selling because I need a bigger car - sad to have to sell it because I truly enjoy every moment behind the wheel of this car and I think you will too. I've babied this car every day - its a low mileage well maintained beautifully spec'd car - only 43,000 miles, oil changes every 5k miles. Also gives great mpg - I observe 23 city and 32 highway regularly. Enthusiast owned and babied, ready for the next enthusiast.
