This is my 2016 BMW 228i. Six speed manual. Despite being the base model with the four cylinder, 240 hp engine I like it a lot and think it’s pretty quick. When I first bought it I thought I’d eventually upgrade to an M2, but after three years I still love it and don’t feel the need for more power.

So just a friendly reminder that the cheapest model isn’t automatically bad, and actually can be awesome (or maybe I’m just a slow driver haha)

    Honestly people need to grow up and give it a rest with the model snobbery. Even a base model BMW today has overkill horsepower for street use. People got along fine with BMWs that made less than 200 hp for decades

    Love my M235i, the size is perfect. Nothing base about yours. Enjoy the ride and F the haters.
