I went to take a look at this car today.The color looks great but it is much darker inside the dealership than outside in direct sunlight.Interesting that the production date for this M240i is June 2021.
The car definitely looks bigger than the current 2 series inside and out.You can feel the slight increase when you are sitting inside the car.The interior looks good but i actually prefer the plastic finish of the plastic on the dash and upper doors in my 2016 M2.It looks more premium than the plastic used in the new car IMO.The M logo on the inner doors also doesn’t seem to light up.It is a permanent logo that is on shiny black plastic material.The SA said he couldn’t find a setting to make it light up and it didn’t light up when we turned the driving lights on. Overall it’s a nice looking car and you really notice the hood power dome.I actually prefer the look of the car from the rear.It has a nice sporty stance from back there. Thanks to Denver at Parkview BMW for taking the time to go over the car with me. |

for me Blue or Red calipers on 230i depend on exterior color & which wheels. I selected Blue for my exterior with bi-color 19" 797M wheels & blue calipers.
I almost chose Red calipers but took pix of each and ran pix by three of my car guy friends, they all thought the Blue looked better. With Black or Thunder Night I would have selected the Red calipers |

So it does seem the M highlighters do light up. i went back in there after it got back and while there is noting in the idrive to adjust them, when the night time lights come on there is a small illumination behind the colours. I will say i wish it was brighter though |
