The warranty risk is a real risk when modding a 335i. It is also the nuisance factor. I had the car tell me it needed brakes, so I took out the piggyback and dropped it at the dealer. Turned out just a false alarm, so I spent the time taking out the piggyback, bringing the car in, getting it back - all for nuttin'!

If you are willing to take the warranty risk and deal with the nuisance factor, the 335i is an amazing and practical bang-for-the buck (handling included). Then factor in getting 25% better fuel economy than an M3 and you can see why the 335i has so many advocates.

I'll hang onto mine for another year and a half and then pick up a slightly used M3. That first 1-2 years depreciation is a real bugger!
