Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Edit - I think they look great, best thing to come out of BMW since the E46 and Z4 Coupe.

could be wrong, but I don't think the 335i has LSD.

Nope, you're right. Bmw save it for M products (most of the time).

How strange... I happen to think many cars are ugly, but I wouldn't drop into that area just to tell people that own them that they drive an ugly car?

Gremlin: shouldn't you stick to the Ford section?

He's made five posts and been a member a month and this is how he makes his mark. A waste of bandwidth.

Plenty of these 335is have been dynoed at 330 + BHP.
305BHP is a tad conservative!!

Assuming you're referring to me; when you run a French company it unfortunately comes with the turf! Must be me as I can't imagine 2 people ever had one?!

I've had a 335i for about 3 months now, black, cream leather, 19" wheels, auto box. I thought it looked great from the off, the test drive confirmed all of the articles about the engine, it has real pace and is easy to drive fast and smooth. Not to everyones taste as I've read, but excellent to drive and I love it. New M3 should roast the RS4!

Really???

How did you find this out?

[GTEYE]

All well and good - its a shame about the problems that arise when you own one!

I bet BMW isn't broadcasting the rear subframe corrosion problem!

I've never heard of that before! Didn't realise there was a widespread problem, where did you hear about it?

Mine has got an LSD (Birds/Quaife) and re-map to 370bhp and is a seriously quick car, blast down to LeMans this year and the only car in our group that was faster was my mates TVR Tamora with 4.3L engine and the nut behind the wheel knows what he's doing! Am going to get the head walnut blasted tomorrow so hopefully should liberate a few more ponies!

Holy thread revivals Batman..

Ditto on the 335i

Just out of interest, where are you getting the walnut blast done, and how much are they charging you?

Cheers
