2014 BMW M235i - Boys' Weekend - Automobile
The perfect plan Nobody else gets me to cut loose, laugh harder, or break more laws than James and Kyle. James lives in St. Louis, and Kyle just south of Indianapolis. So when Kyle and I decided we would make a surprise visit to St. Louis when James’ birthday coincided with Mardi Gras weekend, it made perfect sense for me to pick him up in Indy, halfway along my 550-mile trip to STL. I would leave Michigan in the morning, pick up Kyle after lunch, and show up at James’ place at the tail end of happy hour. A solid plan made better by the fact that I’d be in our 2014 BMW M235i , one of the most balanced and enjoyable sports cars I’ve ever driven. The Garmin Nuvi 3597LMT unit I stuck to the windshield as I pulled out of my driveway worked better than BMW’s stock system would’ve anyway. ” That would’ve irked me had I been in most any other car but, being in the 2014 BMW M235i, I seized the opportunity to ditch the highway and instead sped through sleepy, rundown towns. I set the engine and adaptive suspension in Sport mode before going flat out on the northern Indiana back roads, which are mostly straight but have many small bumps and valleys that would trip up cars with less capable chassis.
