2016 BMW 2 Series Coupe 228i 2dr Coupe (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
Love the Styling
 Not a big car guy...just know what I like...and what I have experienced...YMMV.Traded in a 2014 Honda Accord Coupe, loved it and would have bought a 2016 but Honda gussied it up, added chrome and lost the clean lines I prefer. Also, took delivery of a new Colorado last year (worst purchase ever), just replaced it with a new Tacoma (a great truck).For me, the comparison between the Japanese products with which I am familiar and the German offering is quite interesting. While I would not trade my BMW coupe for anything, I think the Japanese are a bit ahead in a couple of areas. The 2 Series coupe auto shift is not nearly as smooth as what I am used to in the Tacoma or Honda. In fact, I sometimes think I could manual shift smoother. It was not a deal breaker but my 2014 Honda had perforated leather seat inserts, just like i used to spec out when I sold new business jets. It makes the leather softer to sit on and cooler in the summer. The leather on my new 2 Series did not come perforated which I would have preferred.In spite of BMW's very clever use of computer technology, the main gages are what we in the aircraft industry call steam gages. I would have preferred to have digital read outs. After all, this is 2016!!! While there is a bit of wind noise, it provides a great driving experience.Sept 2016...Received a note from Edmunds to update my review so will oblige:Was in France last week and had the occasion to ride in a nearly new Renault. Loved the one piece digital instrument panel that was deep set under a full length glare shield. The digital drive info and navigation screen all integrated into this one piece display.Arrived home and was picked up at the airport by a friend driving her new Series 5 BMW. While the display appeared to be electronic, the instruments depicted analog or steam gauge presentations.Guess the Germans are wedded to this technology!!!
