The 4 cyl model is the one that intrigues me the most. I keep finding conflicting info though on if it has a mechanical LSD or not. If it does, it’s a very compelling, balanced package. I am definitely going to drive the 4 cyl when it comes out. The lack of a manual hurts but I plan to keep my manual 128i anyway so I think I’d be able to stomach it. I’ve driven a few 228i and 230is with the 8 speed automatic and it’s a good transmission.
I do find it to be overstyled, but overall Im still cool with it. Red or Yellow definitely suit it best.

I think I'd be fine with the 4 cyl but I've heard they're getting rid of certain options to cut price, such as leather and power seats. Those are a must for me.
