I don’t have a BMW.I drive a 2008 C-300. At the end of the day the M is a class all in itself. This 335 can’t be compared at all I’m sorry at the end of the day you have a 3 series. The //M is work of art from inside out. Every detail has its meaning and why it’s there. The 335i can me a big monster on the track and road but let’s look at the history of the M. Great cars

Agree. When someone says My X is "as good as" or "better than" Y, what they are really saying is; I wanted Y but couldn't afford it.

BTW the CTS V is only 9 sec slower in an 8 minute a lap circuit (Nurburgring) than the almighty track prepared light M3 GTS (which is not available in the US) and is a few secs quicker than the regular M3s you would own. So all the ignorants around here saying how your car is faster on the track, think again. The Americans are catching up and catching up fast. Not to mention stock for stock it would absolutely murder the m3 in a straight line.

Thanks Tibra...
BTW, I didn't know that Elie335 is one of the 335i owners who mods their car to look like an M3. My bad... http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=613650 But, whatever floats your boat... And for the record, I also own an N54 135i vert.

Coming from an 09 335, I can personally vouch for it being a great daily driver. But as mentioned above, there is no comparison between the two. Completely different experiences. All this crap about it being faster off the line is nonsense. You can make an 1989 honda crx faster then a 458 off the line if you do enough to it.

Traded my '09 135i with 38xxx miles for a '04 M3 with 56xxx almost a year ago and my 135i had a new chargepipe, BOV, and piggyback making it pretty quick, but it still was no M car and it never will be except for the 1 series M Coupe. I test drove the E92 M3 last December and it was a blast. I honestly was genuinely disappointed when it was time to return back to the dealer, it really is a great car. The sound of the S65 is intoxicating to say the least. If I won the lottery I would have an E92 M3 as a DD and my E46 M3 as my weekend car. There is no joy going beyond 6000 rpm with the N54 and you can even hear it want to just give up and start from the beginning. Just my opinion.

Last night I had a guy in a 458 Ferrari giving me the thumbs up and he rolled down his window with his hot chick on the passenger side and told me me my car looked amazing. Doubt I'd get that kind of prop in a 335 that looks exactly like a 328 on the road lol. You Drive an M3 you know EXACTLY what you have. Its not like any other BMW. Period. These Trolls won't phase me. Never will.

The 335 is the new honda civic SI. Seriously.
I can't wait to get rid of mine, it's unreliable and handles like garbage. I felt safer pushing 120+ in my e46vert with the top down then 100 in my moms e90. And hell, that was the e46 chassis. I haven't even had the opportunity to do those speeds in the e9XM. Anyone who denies the 335 drives better than an M3 is in flat out denial. (Waits for the 335 counter......to handling....) |

At 97,000miles, I couldn't be happier. My car puts a smile on my face on the streets, or on the track. This has been the most fun, and most upgradable car I've owned. I can make a bold prediction, and that is: you won't hold on to your car past 50K miles.

Civic? What did you do, remove your turbos? The n54 in the 07-10 335's is the new SUPRA. Go check out the n54 section...Shiv is now getting 425 wheel with a completely stock car motor with just the new Procede flash plus Procede piggy and e85 gas (which by the way is cheaper than 87 oct unleaded). So a tune-only n54 is going to run right with the Stage 1 supercharged M3s. Yes the 335 needs upgrades, particularly in the suspension dept...but with the above-mentioned tune, an LSD, coils and tires can do wonders for a 335.

I can't stress enough how much I could careless about the n54/n55's power potential. It means absolutely nothing to me. I do love the swift kick in the ass with the turbo's, but the car imo, is still garbage. And yes, I'd rather a boosted M rather than a tuned 335i. I'm looking at the bigger picture, and in this case it's the M3. In every aspect. I don't care if it's slower. It's like my buddy, he keeps yacking about getting a z06. I tell him I'd rather be in a Gallardo. I respect both cars, but at the end of the day I want to be in the better car. Not necessarily the faster one. |
