"When needed" is fine by me. Sounds similar to the AMG A35 I had. Pretty sure that favoured the front as well until required elsewhere.

Decided to keep the grilles in chrome.
The car just looks so right to me. I miss my F31 dearly - I thought it looked very muscular and angry, but the E88 is a very timeless design IMO and one of the best convertibles.
I don't regret getting rid of the S5 one bit, and my insurance even halved in price

Welcome to the select club and don't let the haters troll you..My first foray into BMW land. Pick her up tomorrow (hopefully). 2 Series Gran Coupe M235i XDrive in metallic Skyscrapper Grey with Pro Pack.

It does more or less exactly the same as the Haldex system as fitted to the A3/S3. I found this forum https://www.babybmw.net/forums/#bmw-1-2-series-mainline-models.36 a good source for information. You can go to the f40 thread which is normally busier, same platform but hatchback.
If you need some info on dashcams, I fitted my own, or tuning, did have a tuning box for while, then ping me a message..

The 2 Series is the most confusing car in the BMW range.
There is the 2 Series Gran Coupe that is really a 1 Series saloon. Then there is the 2 Series Coupe which is a shorter 3 Series. They are completely different cars and I don't know why BMW calls them both the 2 Series. The engines, gearboxes, platform and interiors are all different.
Both are good cars, just very different.

Have they not dropped that pig?
Looks at home in the current BMW range.
yes - new version looks better as the taller grill makes the steep bonnet rake down from windscreen/high-roof less obvious, which is the horrible aspect of the design,
nonetheless, same chassis as mini/X1? ... so should drive the same and, could be the pragmatic choice.

Thank you.
