I have owned both 335 and M3 at the same time and there was a big difference in torque. However, adding the intake and Akra Evo System to my 2011 made a huge difference in the car's performance. Also, on the freeway, I am averaging 23 MPG which is not as good as the 335, but not bad for a V8.

The 335 does not compare to the M3 in luxury standards. Also, I have never experienced any problems driving around town in the M3. Both cars get me from A to B just fine.

Bottom line: Would I sell my M3 to get a 335? Absolutely not! Would I sell my 335 to get a M3. For sure!
