The mileage does improve. On my trip home from Whidbey todasy my computer said 27. I now have 1800 miles on the odometer. One thousand miles ago it was 23.5. This is my favorite BMW to date, but I did love my 335 as well.

Of course the M3 is going to be a better car... it costs 50% more than the 335. I would hope that a 335 would never beat out an M3 on the road... Personally I am jealous because I want an M3 tomorrow but have decided to wait another year. Congrats man!

Congrats on your new ///M! I liked the analogy of the hot girl and the 335!
You will discover just how hot your new girl is once you're done with the run-in! |

There's something about the M3 that makes it that little bit more special than the 335i

All in all though I love the M3 as well, however I just can't justify a car, any car costing $70K+ that eats more than I do. For me it’s not a money issue, I paid cash for my 335i but for $70K+ there are other cars that need a second look before the M3. A Corvette to name just one. The Corvette will pretty much eat the M3 while getting 30 MPG on the highway. All those extras on the M3 with our speed limits and traffic in the US make it very hard to ever use it. The average driver can't even push even the 335i past its limits without killing themselves and most drivers never try. Red

First off, there's no reason to crap in this guys thread. He got a sweet new ride so let him enjoy it. We don't go over to new owners of 335is and call them poor, do we? Common courtesy among 335i owners is lacking. Seriously, way to shit on this guys thread because he upgraded to the M3. Secondly, it IS a money issue for you and since you think the Z06 is so good the base Vette will walk your 335i so why aren't you driving that? The Z06 also gets 15/24 city/highway. No one will ever be able to push a Kia legally on the highway either, so what is your point exactly? Upset that he drives a M3 and you don't? Sad. Go back to troll school. |

Looks like we have a self absorbed troll, the best of the worst.
This is a public forum so expect criticism from other people based on what you say. Difficult concept I'd imagine. |

Yes, you really like the M3 enough to come here and tell us how it's a waste of money and that the Vette is so much better. I suppose being "true" is a lot like being facetious. Silly troll.

Anyway, e36jakeo - congrats on the decision. Like Lazslo (yes I read this forum way too much) you finally came around. I can relate to you guys a bit because I love the wife's 335i and for a long time I was convinced it would be a 335i for me this time instead of an M. I feel like I'm the only one here without an E9X M3 now, lol. I will have one by next spring, damnit. |

During the past five months I never even considered silver since a silver BMW is a bit of a stereotype. Then I noticed it is not your ordinary silver. It has a touch (very small touch) of green in it in certain lights. I think the contrast between the silver and the black hood vent and side gills, plus the nearly matching 18" rims looks bitchin'. I am super happy with it!
BTW, I checked into the speed cloth and thought is was not very high quality, plus you lose the nice Novillo leather armrest if you go that way. The leather in the m3 is 10x nicer (softer, more supple, high quality) than the 335i - well worth getting!
