New to the forum!

Hello all. I just picked up a CPO 2017 model M240i this past weekend and wanted to introduce myself. We bought my wife a X2 last year and I fell in love with BMW again so I traded my 2006 Porsche Boxster in on the M240i when it caught my eye at the BMW dealership next to my office. I've only had the opportunity to drive it a few times but wow it's fast! I can't wait to dig into the forums and I'm sure I'll have some questions for you guys as I get to know the car. I'll post up some pictures soon.

Congrats! Yeah, gotta post some pics -- did you go manual or auto?

Enjoy those summer drives!

This one is an auto, it's actually the first non manual transmission sports car I've ever owned but the transmission is quite impressive and with the power output it feel like a great match.

Here are a couple of dealer shots, I'll take some good pictures this weekend.

Beautiful ride! As a fellow Alpine White m240 owner, I approve!

As yes, as many have noted on this forum, the 8sp ZF is an incredible transmission. I went the MT route, but with the B58, it doesn't matter which option you choose, you're just gonna love the power!

ENJOY!
