That's way too early to know.

A car magazine's estimates aren't always going to be what BMW puts on the production line though.

M-sport Line/Brakes
M-performance port-installed/aftermarket stuff
Whatever the M235i is
The actual M cars
...I'm an actual BMW enthusiast and I can't even keep them all straight (does the M235i have 704 suspension or M-performance?, M-sport 328xi has base suspension, etc). The casual car buyer must be confused out of their minds.

Um, I'm sure the casual car buyer could give a crap less about all those things you listed. The casual buyer probably has never even heard of the 704 or of port installed options and so has no clue.

The casual buyer doesn't see an M235 go down the road and spit on the ground that it's a "fake" //M car.

Those are all enthusiast based concerns/issues.......LOL

Technically, that chart doesn't state if that's HP or PS.

The power is rated in kW, so 240KW translates into 321HP. Fingers crossed this is BMW underrating it's engines once again.
