Today I was watching Motorweek, and they were reviewing the new M235i...she asked me why it had M badges if it wasn't a real M car. I explained that it was a clever bit of marketing for folks who can't afford a real M2 (if BMW ever sees fit to produce one, anyway) to make them feel better about themselves. She said she'd rather wait a few years and buy an M2 off lease for less than the poor suckers paid for an M235i anyway. Awesome.

I still haven't met a married guy who is the one who decides when the sex happens. I think the wife decides that in 100 out of 100 marriages.

The trick is to marry someone awesome. Then all is fine. Don't end up like some of my married friends who get sexy time once a quarter, lol


Kinja'd!!! Brian Silvestro > Manuél Ferrari

Or just never get married!

LOL. That is an option. But riddled with all sorts of other issues.

Different issues, like having to deal with deciding which supercars to buy.

Haha exactly.

Speaking of which I spent the afternoon helping the old man. I sat in the car and cycled through the gears when he told me to. Boring but at least there was a nice view:

Then on the way home I saw a black 458 Coupe broken down on the side of a busy street. Probably an issue with the F1 box.

F the F1. Gated shifters are the only way to go if you want to avoid break downs and actually use your car whenever you want to.

This is true. If you drive it on the street it'll be uncomfortable. With a stick, it's fun all the time, no matter how you're driving.

See, look at all of the "different issues" you have to deal with.

How about wow X 2

So nice

Btw I think the 458 might actually look best in black. It hides the weird angles.

And the weird panel gap grilles next to the headlights.

Honestly if you don't plan on tracking much the M235i is all anyone needs. Plenty of power for the street, and a sporty yet more comfortable ride than an M2 will have. You could track it as well but you'll eventually want the optional LSD. Here's a picture of a real one with a lot better looking front end.

I wouldn't buy one either way, to be honest, I'd prefer an M3 for the extra doors. But I'd also be buying an E46 M3 anyway, because I cannot afford a newer one.

Seems like a pretty good little car.

Randy Pobst: "This is the best-handling production BMW I've driven in 10 years. This car is well-balanced. What a pleasure!" Still loses to the new STi in MT's comparison, though.
