Should I trade in my car for m235i?

Hi everyone, recently I find a 2015 m235i which has 62500km sales 29500$.

I have a nissan 370z 2018, has 14500km. I am considering should I trade in my car for m235i xdrive.

I live in Manitoba, which is very cold and alot of snow. 370z is a fun car, N/A 322hp.

Last year I got an accident, Manitoba public insurance spent 21000$ on repairing. chassis and body are good. The right door, hood, front bumper and light were broken.

Although 370z has 322hp, the power I felt was less than I expect.

So can anyone gives some opinions?

You're posting on an M2 Forum. Nobody here is going to have any experience with an M235i, which is a different car.

I got rid of my 350Z after buying an M2 Competition. The M2 Competition is much better in almost every way. But a 350Z is not as good as a 370Z and an M235i is not as good as an M2 Competition, so your mileage may vary.

You definitely should browse the 2 series forum. I owned a M235 but it was not an xdrive. I suspect that the handling characteristics could be quite different.

I owned a M235i Xdrive and my employee owns a 370z and I liked the M235i a lot more.

I used own a subaru wrx 2018. I was a little bit regret that I traded my wrx for 370z. RWD is fun but 370z' streeing is lighter than WRX. Can not have confidence When I am driving. I am not sure this is because the difference between AWD and RWD or just because 370z is not good
