It wasn't a challenge, more so me picking his brain on something I might of missed. So many threads on the subject and the info are scattered all over.. You never know.. Just saying, it's kind of surprising they gave the M240i fenders so much girth, so when the poster suggested they might be catering on CCing this platform into an M2, it got me thinking. But hey, if I was mistaken, I have no issue with being corrected. I'm here to learn, not be right.. 🤓 |

I don't think so. The blue one on the first page looks the same, like you can see an oil cooler through the opening/vent/duct, same with the gray one on the previous page in the post that you first made.
As said above, most likely a different package on those certain cars compared to the one where you see it looking blocked off almost. |

I was also in the undecided camp but actually there's no doubt it's an improvement from the F22. It just needs a slight modification in the headlights and tailights and front bumper areas to make it look great. Just like the 2 series was much improved in the LCI I think the same will happen here. Only problem is that we gotta wait 3-4 years for that. |

Anyone find real pictures of the M240i in black with the upgraded black trim package and wheels? that's the version I really want to see.

I think it looks fantastic in the Purple. What concerns me is there is no manual-transmission available in either model and the M240i only comes in AWD. So much for the spiritual replacement for the 2002 the E82 was when it came out. And 4-inches longer than the previous generation? It has to be nearly as big as an E92!

The flame surfacing of the F22 created a soft concave sheet metal indent. They don't seem to want any much soft curves this gen. Everything is more angular and sharp edged. |
