I actually sought out the 230I over the 240i. I checked out an M2 Comp as well, but since this car was to be my daily driver, I went for the 230.
I'd love to have the engine note of the B58, but other than that, I find the 230 plenty quick, especially for the street, and a ton-o-fun handling wise. I'll probably do some sort of exhaust mod once there are some more options, but other than that, I'll be set.
The G42 platform is certainly capable and I love the classic lines of the car. It seems there's a little something for everyone, including the G87 M2, which should also prove interesting.
