The BMW M240i Convertible is the bimmer that puts the F in FUN
Matthew DeBord/BI
For BMW, this is something of a tough pill to swallow, because the Bavarians invented the sports coupé and brought it to America back in the 1970s with the magnificent 2002. Many iterations have followed, with convertibles and four-doors added to the pack.
These have always been fun-to-drive, yet relatively practical, cars. And give the BMW M-Sport high-performance treatment, the fun becomes excessive. So who cares if all people want are crossovers? That just means more cars like the BMW M240i for the rest of us.
BMW sells both proper M-cars and vehicles that live a notch lower on the price and performance ladder. So in the 2-Series realm, there's the M2 - a stonking machine - and the M240i, which replaces the wonderful M235i. We got our hands on the M240i convertible recently and were able to see how it does the job of serving up open-air motoring fun during some spirited driving in suburban New Jersey.
