Again, some notice it more than others, with that said, everything else on an M2 would be better, if you liked your 1series, then this is the modern newer, improved version of the 1series, in many ways. The M2 is a great car that is an amazing value in today’s market of performance cars.  |
Well stated and I couldn't agree more.
I own a 135 and M2. The 2 things I like better in the 1 series are the smaller size and hydraulic steering.
Most everything else goes to the M2. I just puts power down so much better than the 135 and handles great. You'll enjoy the switch.
