If M235i is "hot climate spec" then it has the additional radiator on front LHS + upgraded fan (600W -> 850W), both of which are standard fit on M2.

M2 has DCT cooler which I don't believe M235i ZF auto has.

Else pretty much the same as far as hardware is concerned.....

I believe engine temperature management FW maybe different ie more allowing M2 to being resilient than M235i at handling high temps.
