I test drove a m240ixdrive yesterday with the zf 8 speed transmission and was very impressed. The engine is an absolute peach with butttery smooth instant power and torque. The transmission is direct and immediate in its shifts. The compact proportions of the car are perfect.

I really liked the car (I didn't walk away smiling like I did with the ftype, but the f type has been ruled out for practicality considerations).

I am close to placing an order, but the thought crossed my mind that I should perhaps at least compare it to the c43...which is a little pricier but in the same ballpark.

would welcome any thoughts on comparisons of the c43 with the m240i

Yes the F-type is not practical at all but I still bought it. I have other cars to use when practically is important.
