Sporty. Handles like a dream. Base engine is enough power for us, spec say top speed is 130+. Don’t doubt it. Point an shoot. Interior is beautiful and upscale. Well made. Voice recognition is unusually good and spot on. Bit “sporty” over bumps. Good ride, but not cushy. Safety tech is wonderful and straight forward. As advertised. Other technology is good, but esoteric. Big learning curve. Need to read all the manuals and videos to feel comfortable with the infotainment, even for nerd types. Definitely not intuitive to the non-german mind. GPS map is crazy complicated graphic, too much detail. Hard to read at a glance. Not usable. Rather use Apple Car Play instead. Opt for the self parking feature for $200. It’s a bargain, especially parking in tight garages. Lively and lovely pocket-rocket. Would definitely recommend as a fun little runabout.

German Pocket Rocket

I leased my 2021 BMW M235i x drive gran coupe about 1 month ago and I love it. and this is coming from a Mercedes owner and sales person. My 1999 C43 AMG is my garage queen and I was looking for something fun to drive to replace it for daily driving. After being unable to secure a 2021 A35 or CLA 35 AMG ( due to chip shortage and Covid ) I was forced to look elsewhere. I was not familiar with the BMW M235i X drive Gran Coupe and my 15 year old son insisted that I take a look at this vehicle. The closest M235i X drive Gran Coupe was about 45 miles from me so I took to looking at reviews on YouTube and was hooked. I secured my lease online and had it delivered to me the same day and I have been happy ever sense. This vehicle is beautiful to look at and drive. It handles like a proper sports sedan and corners likes it's on rails. The variable exhaust is perfect, just enough growl to sound mean but not loud enough to bother the neighbors. It comes with all the tech toys and safety tech you could ever ask for. If you are looking for a fun to drive sports sedan this one needs to be on your short list.

If you want a fun car to drive, the 2020 2 Series Gran Coupe is the one to get. You’ll find yourself looking for excuses to drive it!

Very Nice Vehicle, Diluted BMW DNA

I leased this as a bridge vehicle till the electric 4-series BMW comes out in 2022. It’s a great vehicle for what it is. Fairly zippy with good handling-good German-engineered all-wheel drive. It is the first automatic transmission I’ve owned andthe lag time between punching the accelerator and actually moving, is very poor. Mind you, I am comparing it to my’98 323 with a five-speed manual transition that delivers pretty direct drive. That said, I’d recommend this car for those wanting a sports compact that’s a BMW. If you’re used to driving an older, rear-wheel drive BMW, this may not be the car for you.

2 series Gran Coupe, exterior has great elegant look, the back lights gives it a modern look, specially when driving a night, you know it's a luxury car. Interior feels like all top BMWs. 5 rating overall. well done BMW

Really love this car. Loaded with features, ergonomic, superior handling. Decided to buy out my lease and hold on to this one as it suits me perfectly :)

Returning to a BMW after a twenty year hiatus, this car really has a high build quality and great driving dynamics. The car is smaller, which is what I wanted, but it doesn’t feel small. The engine noise and exhaust is perfect, make sure you lower the imported sound. The exhaust will sing to you. The breaks are on point as is the steering! The sport setting is great for fun, comfort is great for the highway. Getting used to the lane keeping feature. The seating is incredibly supportive and comfortable. Storage is perfect throughout the car. I am really happy with the M235i.

I’ve owned 4 BMW’s so far and love the brand. I was looking for a sport sedan with lots of pep and fun to drive. I found it in my M235i white on red leather Gran Coupe. Handling is solid, acceleration is on point, comfortable and awesome tech. CPo so have full 4 yr warranty and unlimited miles!

Great car, ugly looks

This car is a blast to drive. It’s fast and nimble and more than gets the job done. Honestly this car would be the perfect car if it looked like the 3 series. The look of this car is so bad I can’t help but think I made the wrong decision every time I look at it. Being inside the car makes me almost forget how much I do not like the looks of this though. It is so fast and coming from a long line of sport cars this car can beat most of them in a sprint. Overall fantastic car if you can get past the looks.

This is a wonderful car as long as you don't drive it. We are going through tires like water. It seems like the smallest pothole will destroy the tire and the rims and leave you on the side of the road. The low-profile run-flats are a disaster. And they do not really run flat. I'm trying to get them to take it back early. I have six months left on a 3-year lease. But even though I bought it before the run-up in car prices, I still can't get out without paying almost the entire amount remaining on the lease. I might have to just do it. It's too dangerous to drive. I can't even let my elderly mother in the car. This whole experience is a disaster. I'm shocked others have not expressed this. Even the dealership and service people acknowledge it. Do not buy this car!!!
