If you look at s2ki you will see a lot of love for 335i's and M3s, a lot of guys who drove S2000s in college bought a 335i as their young professional car and are now upgrading to the M3s. I know thats the case with me at least
I kick myself every time I take a trip down memory lane and look at pics of my cherry AP1 that I sold for no good reason a couple years back. What an amazing car...I will own one again!
