For the last few months I have been going back and forth with either the 2016/2017 M235i/M240i or a 2015/2016 C7 Vette LT2 with the Z51 Package. Thanks to a friend, I have been able to drive both for a couple of weeks. I loved the Vette, the sound of the V8 and the auto rev matching while rowing backwards on the stick was intoxication. However, I am not as aerodynamic as I would like to be and after 30 minutes behind the wheel I felt a bit too uncomfortable. The BMW, was a bit more forgiving and I could see myself driving for hours with almost equal enjoyment, the baby M is surprisingly quick. I was just about to purchase a certified pre-owned with less than 8k miles until I drove the 2018. Although the changes are minimal, they were enough for me to beg, scream and fight to squeeze out $4.5k from the MSRP of a new 2018 M240i Convertible and snag the .09% financing for 72 months, I am very happy!
