I'll admit that I've got some homework to do on this one but I'm not sure it has the gesture control on the infotainment like some of the other Beemers. But this color is dope! Its like a light blue/silver mixture. And the way the shifter twitches to the right for after pressing the park button is the jump off!
Not sure this guy has all of his facts straight ( it does not weight 2600 pounds for example), but it is the best driving BMW I have had in the last 12 years. I have had mine for a month now , and the color gets complements everywhere I go. This is a great driving car
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I think it’s a bit big. i’m used to smaller cars my last one was a countryman. I got the xt4 on price alone but ended up not liking it and in the long run if I want something better i’m more comfortable with. so hopefully I can get this. or i’m stuck with the xt4. it drives nice just not fun.
Ive had it with ultra low profile wheels. Where i live, the roads aren't great and it means punctures and wheel damage constantly. Apart from that, i dont like what it does to the ride.
Probably not too much in power. But this will still feel like a more performance oriented car by a bit. Tuning a 230 will be a great cost effective way to go tho!
HELP! in your opinion. What is the best car for gas, and comfortability for long road trips (my husband and I drive to Wisconsin from Tennessee twice a year) some features I would love is lane assist, gps navigation, and rear cross traffic alert. We are hoping to get a vehicle within the next couple months and we are not sure at all because we've always done buy here pay here car shops. We've never went though a dealership. PLZ HELP. Thank you so much!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed thanks for the reply. but when I press sport mode the left flap doesn't open and close and I don't have any bubbles ... think I have a problem with the flap control. Thanks for the reply. 👍🏻
@@dk.m1404 i just got the car 2 weeks ago, if you are referring to the flap opening when you rev in park, try putting it into neutral and put the parking brake down(not setting car into P), it'll open it, it's becuz they put a rev limiter in park mode!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed according to car and driver it’s curb weight is 3,517. I think that was a mistake on BMW’s website. www.caranddriver.com/bmw/2-series-gran-coupe
Yeah there was some misinformation on BMW's website about the curb weight. There are some threads in the comments about that. Weird how multiple sources said different things
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Thats true. Even whats published is subject. I dont think anyone thinking of this car would really consider weight anyway. Keep up the great vids!
Sure, the performance numbers are impressive, and the interiors of these subcompact entry level luxury cars have gotten muuuuuuuuch nicer, but imho there are many far more compelling places in the car market to take $50k. Wouldn’t be my personal choice, but if people are into it, more power to BMW, I guess🤷♂️
What are you talking about 2600 lbs? Your voice is so annoying. Even my '03 Rav4 weighs about 3200 lb. The interface is really old looking compared to VW AG vehicles. I thought BMW would be longitudinally mounted. So, I suppose it's FWD biased. Anyone know?
@@BrosFOURRSpeed BMW site says 3600 lb curb, or there about. Is xDrive full-time AWD? My understanding is that most vehicles with transversely mounted engines are FWD biased because they use transaxles.
Definitely the sickest entry level lux sports sedan
For sure! It has a lot to offer. But I'd rather have an Audi S3
You just convinced me on what to buy i was thinking of opting for the m135i 😂😂i like thank you
Oh nice!
I just bought a 2021 and i'am excited.
Sweet!
I ❤️ this car omfg. Dream car. This specific iteration though. Was not a fan of the one before.
Keeping working towards it! This is a fun BMW for sure!
I'll admit that I've got some homework to do on this one but I'm not sure it has the gesture control on the infotainment like some of the other Beemers. But this color is dope! Its like a light blue/silver mixture. And the way the shifter twitches to the right for after pressing the park button is the jump off!
I think it does have the gesture control, I just didn't show it, mainly for the volume control, but this was a great color for it for sure!

I think you did a great job on this review
I appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed this BMW review!
I can’t wait for a new M2 Competition (maybe it’ll also be offered with the Gran Coupe version).
We haven't checked out an M2 in awhile! Hopefully we can soon and see what they have to offer!
Sad news, we have to wait for another two years for the new M2.
Europe also has the M135i xDrive with the same engine. It’s a hatchback though.
That's interesting! I don't think we'll have that here!
Hatchbacks aren’t popular in the US and A anyway.
@@DaveDVideoMaker Yea I know, they are cool though!
I agree. We get more of these in Europe.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed They won't ship the M135 in the US
I love the 2021 BMW 235i Gan coupe it’s very nice
It's pretty sweet for sure! Great entry level BMW!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I know right
Great video bros 4 speed
Thanks for checking it out, glad you enjoyed this BMW review!
Wow a BMW M235i Gran Coupe Rivals:Audi S3 Saloon, Mercedes CLA,Hyundai Elantra,Kia K5
Yeah this is a great car!! I'd be hard pressed to pick between the M235i or the S3. Both are great!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed uh huh But M235i Gran Coupe Against the Kia K5 right
great review I hope I get a good deal on one that’s available today and I trade my 2023 xt4 for it
What don’t you like about the Cadillac? You haven’t had that long.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I think it’s a bit big. i’m used to smaller cars my last one was a countryman.

Great review! Nice vehicle.
Thanks! 👍
I really liked seeing what the new M235i had to offer! Great little car!
Sometimes I feel every bmw has a same kind of interior 🙄
All the BMW interiors are pretty much the same, minus trim pieces depending on the model!
Very Awesome Review, Also This Is Actually My Dream Car Too 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿😎😎💕💕
Very cool! Glad you enjoyed the BMW M235i review! Such a cool entry level M car!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed Thanks, I.M Planning To Get One Soon
@@Theonestrongbusleader Awesome, you'll enjoy it!
Love from Charlotte!!!
Thanks for the support!! This complex has a lot of great vehicles we get to review and check out!!
Wow unusually cool
This BMW M235i is a sweet car!
Excellent review! I WILL be buying one of these, hopefully for about half the retail! PS - I say "the", not thee!
Cool, enjoy it!
People do pronounce words differently..
Ive had it with ultra low profile wheels. Where i live, the roads aren't great and it means punctures and wheel damage constantly. Apart from that, i dont like what it does to the ride.
That will certainly do that! Around here our roads are pretty good and low profile works well. But at least you can always change that
Can do any fast and furious cars review? It would be awesome to do one
Don't really have access to any of those cars! If we ever get the opportunity to we will!
What’s the difference between this and a tuned 230i
Probably not too much in power. But this will still feel like a more performance oriented car by a bit. Tuning a 230 will be a great cost effective way to go tho!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed would rather the m240i, more bang for your buck!
Is a also a xdrive
Yes this BMW M235i has the xdrive awd system!
I would get it but to bad you can't adaptive cruse
Oh dang thats a great option for this car to not have
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I feel like a car at this price point should be standard
What other cars would people go for similar price range and performance?
Maybe an Audi S3, WRX STI, CLA45, IS350 or CT4V
This definitely a dope car but idk for the price if it is worth it
I think its pretty on par with the competitors from Audi and Mercedes. Great car overall
how many HP ? and whats the max HP for this model
I say the HP in the first few minutes of the video. This is the top of the line 2 series Gran Coupe

If those are your biggest wants, probably a nicely loaded up Prius or other hybrid sedan. Sonata is a nice car and those come in a hybrid
@@BrosFOURRSpeed we was discussing a sonata was one of them. Thank you so much for the info!
Who zoomed n on everything
Can you time stamp where you are talking about on this BMW review?
Is it smooth
It's a smooth driving BMW! Definitely check out one in person to see how it feels, but I liked it!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed thanks for reply ur the best youtuber
@@user-zq5dy1up4j I appreciate that! Thanks for checking out the review!
hey how do you do that in sport mode that the exhaust is bubbling
You just press the sport mode button and the car goes into the more aggressive modes!
@@BrosFOURRSpeed thanks for the reply. but when I press sport mode the left flap doesn't open and close and I don't have any bubbles ... think I have a problem with the flap control. Thanks for the reply. 👍🏻
@@dk.m1404 Depends, where u live. sometimes the flap just opens when you are accelerating to decrease noise in cities.
@@dk.m1404 i just got the car 2 weeks ago, if you are referring to the flap opening when you rev in park, try putting it into neutral and put the parking brake down(not setting car into P), it'll open it, it's becuz they put a rev limiter in park mode!
2600 lbs?????
That's what I found on BMW'S website! It's not a big sedan at all.
Add 1000 to that
@@RyanT9288 The curb weight is just over 2600 pounds!

@@rohansingh494 ye it's 100% a mistake
That’s a fast 4 cylinder

I’m the biggest BMW fan and I would rather take a loaded Honda over this fake BMW, the CLA looks nicer anyways.
@@jehadwadi4554 Oh, me too. I just don’t see what this does that a Golf R or a Mazda3 2.5 Turbo doesn’t!
Yeah this isn't everyones tastes. But these small sized sedans with the performance have a nice market
Man thats a tough one lol. I'd pick the BMW over those lol
@@williamlong2682 not a chance! The CLA is the only nice car. Name some others I’d be more than happy to listen to your opinion
There’s no way this car weighs 2600lbs lol
I saw sites that listed that, but it should be closer to 3600 pounds.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed sorry I saw a whole bunch of other people said this a while ago I just forgot to delete my comment. Nice review!
The Front looks like a Kia
Yeah I do see a bit of that. A sporty version of a KIA Forte! But way nicer to drive and faster!
Sounds like an old Datsun.
Similar sized engine depending on what Datsun you're referring too
@@BrosFOURRSpeed I don't remember a Datsun with 301 HP.
👍❤🧡
Thanks for checking out the BMW review!
Guys… this looks like a Kia.
Yeah I can see that a bit. Hopefully they up the styling a bit like how the new 2 door 2 series looks
What are you talking about 2600 lbs? Your voice is so annoying. Even my '03 Rav4 weighs about 3200 lb. The interface is really old looking compared to VW AG vehicles.
I thought BMW would be longitudinally mounted. So, I suppose it's FWD biased. Anyone know?
A lot of websites said 2600, but some say 3300 which does sound more right. This is the xDrive model, so it's AWD.
@@BrosFOURRSpeed BMW site says 3600 lb curb, or there about. Is xDrive full-time AWD? My understanding is that most vehicles with transversely mounted engines are FWD biased because they use transaxles.
