Like I get it, spend a lot of money for the M4 over the M2, and you get stuff, but really, like the 2 series is suppose to be lighter, not just more compact. A 2.0T 230i is 3,500lbs. BMW needs to bring back the 1-series or a 0-series. Oh wait, I forgot. If someone wants a small, lightweight BMW then they just need to buy a Mini.
I didn't think it felt much heavier then the 981 Cayman S that I got to drive, just less pointy.

If BMW built a factory version of this I would sell everything I own and live out of a tent.
