please let us know your impressions. My dealer told me that, compared to the M135i, the "40" has a different software for the automatic gearbox (in sport mode is faster and "sportier" than before, especially in downshifts). Other things is the fuel consumpion, better than the M135...let us know if it's true, and another good thing they've done is the tipical exhaust mumble of the cold start available also in warm engine starts. So I think that the left valve of the exhaust system is Always open in every kind of engine tempertaure condition start, instead of only in the cold one as it was in the M135i.
They also told me that the engineer worked as far as the engine/exhaust sound, more like an aspirated now.... than the M135, where the "turbo" note was noticeble. Let us know if all these "quids" are true...because it's the reason why I've ordered it.
