You can definitely feel the size and weight difference in the M235i compared to the other two cars. The M4 and M3 felt very heavy and just weren't very much fun when I was aggressively cornering at high speeds.The M3 felt a little bit lighter than the M4 and it does corner better than the M4 but it is still way to big for me. When you get into the M235i after driving the other two cars,you can really feel the difference in the size.I don't even care about the seats not being true M seats anymore.They hold you firmly in place through the corners and are very comfortable.The view out the windshield is also much better because you aren't staring at the massive sized hood of the M3 and M4.The 2 series hood is the perfect size in comparison.The M235i is also much more fun to drive than the other two cars.It feels light and nimble through the corners compared to the M3 and M4. I now know that when it comes to sports cars,I wouldn't want anything bigger than my E46 M3.The M235i is a little bit smaller and just feels like the perfect size.For the price it is a very good small sports car.I have no doubt that the M2 is going to be an absolute blast to drive which is what I want when I drive a sports car.I just don't get that feeling when I drive the M3 and M4.I am very excited for the M2. |

I just did a search and it listed the M235i weight as being 3535 lbs with the automatic tranny.That puts the official weight as basically being the same as the M3.I really don't even care what the official weight numbers say.It feels lighter,more nimble and is noticeably smaller than the other two cars,which is all I care about. |

Didn't you sell your M4,so you could order the M2?I'm just curious why you would sell it so quickly,if you liked it so much.
