It is a rare thing when a performance model comes without roof, BMW to buck the style

M235i is a performance car that will swirl the wind through your hair with the same sporting 322bhp turbocharged six-cylinder BMW petrol engine. It is offered in a Coupe type Convertible style. We all know the practice by now, that why a car is losing its roof? It is an attempt to improve the firmness of the car by losing its weight. It loses the kerb weight by 145kg when it goes Convertible.

Well, it has not gained any big boost in performance by losing its top but the soft top version once again is electronically limited to a top speed of 155 miles per hour. It still clocks zero to 62 miles per hour in 5.0 seconds and the Coupe is still leading this Convertible by 0.2 seconds. When you decide to buy an M235i Convertible, keep in mind that it will add a £3175 to the standard price of M235i Coupe.

Of course, 3.0 litre, turbocharged straight six engine is still a hero in the performance model line-up. It is still brilliant and offers a massive torque at low revs that mean you can simply speed up the vehicle without changing the gears down.

The six-cylinder engine roars and turbo whistles on relatively high revs, so usually drivers wish to rev it too to get rid of this situation. It is less involving than the manual versions, while the eight-speed automatic M235i is still pick of the range because of its quality of picking up the power swiftly. It performs smoothly than many of the dual-clutch machines offered by Volkswagen group.
