As for how much? Agreed it isn't going to be light and day but disputing wether it will be better or not is a bit odd to me?
Interestingly, there's never been such a comparison within the BMW product range of a 3 door hatch versus the 2 door coupé equivalent (usually it's saloon vs coupé); they never did a 135i hatchback after all. I just don't think it's going to be much different on M135i (an already accomplished car) vs M235i and certainly not appreciable in everyday driving which most of these cars will experience.

And no, I don't own an M135i!
