It seems most of you guys don't realize that people in Europe tow with their BMW's and other sedans/hatchbacks all the time. A trailer hitch was even an option on the European model 3 series. Even searching on this site turned up the towing capacity specs of the 335:

"from the European brochure, it looks like the max tongue weight for the factory hitch is 165lbs (75Kg) and the max total weight is 1650 lbs (750Kg) without brakes, or up to 3750lbs (1700Kg) with trailer brakes."

With that in mind, an occasional tow is not going to destroy your car like some of you think.
