Old thread but, the M-series is really the only BMWs that have anything going for themselves in regard to looks imo... the IS anyday as far as looks and reliability.
The BMWs are really a boring car with exterior/interior. No lines or creativity, not aggressive at all and just...dated rounded curves.
Yes they have tunes and performance options which dont even compare because they're much better, and I do realize this is posted in "performance" thread. But I just sat in my friends new M235i and it's really fast...but in comparison to my 14 IS350 it just doesn't have much to say for design and comfort. Not to mention I remember working on these when I was in a shop and it's as if BMW TRIED to keep us from getting even the simplest job done in less that 2 hours. Such a pain.
For what is worth, car and driver preferred BMW 3 series over IS on the track.
