Well I haven't really had a chance to take if for a good drive yet. I can tell you from my initial impression that it drives nothing like an M5. The M235i is very responsive to steering and throttle inputs, it feels light on it's feet. Not that the M5 isn't responsive it's just a different feel. Keep in mind my M5 has the comp package.

Put it this way, if I where going for short drive the M235i would be the choice for a fun, run around town car. If I'm going on a long drive out on the open highway it would be the M5. The M235i is the back road twisties car and the M5 is the autobahn stormer.

For the next couple weeks the M235i is going to be my prefered ride. Once the newness wears off a little I'll be able to give a better impression.

If you get a thrill from going WOT from a roll on the freeway, there are very few cars more thrilling than the F10 M5. It has insane speed... go straight to jail don't pass go speed.

I'll try to get some good photos this week. It's been a busy weekend for me and I haven't had a chance to really even drive the car let alone take pictures.

Mineral white on red looks fantastic. Trying to decided between that or mineral grey/red...

having seen a mineral white in the flesh, it is the colour I am going to order. I have an AW Z4 now and it is different.
