Great video, I have the Dakota Red also and love it, the black/red contrast looks great when you are in the car, I always get a lot of compliments.

I say maybe, it is depending on the look you like and going for, all black interior isn't bad either. I just really like how they did the red / black in the car. So far it is the first thing people say when they enter the car, the second is the sound from the engine.

Really enjoyed the video. Thanks for posting.

Comments...

1. Many great lines! Loved your closing remark: "Dealership might tell you anything to get you to buy it, but oh well." Words to live by, man.

2. Rosie deserved more of a role.

pz619 · 09-23-2016, 01:48 AM

Sounds like a new gong too.

bimmerfile · 09-23-2016, 05:25 AM

The 240 is almost as cute as Rosie..

JT2Swag · 09-23-2016, 12:40 PM

It really depends on ur style, i love the white and red so i made sure they could get it for me

JT2Swag · 09-23-2016, 12:41 PM

boypaulkim · 09-24-2016, 07:37 AM

Nope, its got extra oil coolers in their place.

T4455 · 09-24-2016, 01:44 PM

Those heatsinks/coils above the headlights in the engine bay are for the headlights, from what I was told they run so hot you need them.

qnet · 09-24-2016, 02:02 PM

Nice video. I like your color combination.

JT2Swag · 09-24-2016, 05:01 PM

I get lots of compliments on my Estoril blue/oyster leather combo on my 228ix vert as well. Nice choices for everyones taste. Love your M240.

Nice, great color combo. After a lot of black interior I was happy to change to something modest but "flashy" at the same time. I don't think the red overpowers and at night the red looks darker which looks good.

I already have 1000 miles on my m240ix and every time I get into the car it still makes me smile like the first day I drove it. It really is a great overall car.

isthar · 09-27-2016, 06:57 AM

from an Alpine White xDrive M235 with the coral red interior, love the combo!
I note these differences to my car, very few:

The chime! Very different.
and I think the font of "M Performance" on the engine bay are different?

Not many other things jumped out at me.
