I have seen the light
So I was dead set on getting an F30 335i untill I saw the light. I just changed my mind the other day and fell in love with the m235i.
Originally my thinking was that a 4 series is pretty similar to 3 series but its a coupe, so that must mean 2 series is similar to the 1 series, but man was I wrong! I never really liked the 1 series because I always thought they looked to squished and compacted. Also I am 6'2" 225 lbs so I thought there was no way i'd fit into a car like that. It wasn't until last week that I really noticed the 2 series and how good they look. They are amazing! Also the mppk, optional lsd, and pss tires are all things that I would have put into the F30, but are stock in this car. Huge savings! They are also very similarly priced so its a no brainer. I went to a dealership yesterday to see one in person and sit in it, and it was even better than I expected. I hope to buy one right at the beginning of June CPO 2014. Hopefully there are still some for sale. The pickings are already pretty slim in the northeast as of right now. Getting pretty excited and its only a couple months out now just wanted to share my epiphany. |

No the only one they had was in there shop so I was sitting in a 228i just for sizing. I didn't think that one would be worth it to drive because the 228 and m235 would feel completely different. Also I wasn't going to be buying for a couple months and not from that dealership so I didn't want to use the SA's time for something that wouldn't be a sale. I did test a couple 335Ix about a month ago and an Audi S4. |
