Like I said from the beginning. This thread is kind of lame and childish. I haven't had anyone ask me to guess anything since I was in 5th grade. LAME

LOL.. It's not the same car.. Well, only in looks for now
Yes it is staggered with the ZSP summer rubber 18's from the factory.. This is one awd vehicle that can run a staggered set up w/o issue. The zsp wheels pictured are only temporary. I will look into some aftermarket wheels. BBS perhaps??
Thanks.. You were right on from the begining ha haa..
The steering response & feel in this car is no different than that of the 2wd 335. It is firm and you feel like one with the car. The x-drive is a hair quicker of the line than the 2wd 335. In addition, AWD will definetly give me an advantage in the wet & winter conditions.. This vid below depicts some of the capabilities of this car... Bring on the white stuff!

The GS is still in the garage for those who were wondering.. The car is driven during the weekends locally.. Perhaps I should dump it & get something else?

If you've every driven the M3, you really don't get much from the v8 until you are in the high rpm range. Lets not forget the 13mpg in the M3. It would consume more gas over the course of the year than the 335. Not that I am a miser but hey.. The 335 xdrive mpg is rated at 17 city 25 hwy. I can't wait for break in to be over.... I have wheel plans for this car along with other goodies..
13mpg on the m3? where did that come from? the car is rated 14/20 and i avg around 16 to 17mpg. for sure though, the 335 is better, but i wouldn't day it's dramatic?
well, just my 2 cents. i drive a m3 so i don't want to be called biased. i too thought about 335 for a while

I would keep the GS and get something else if u need to. I will prob pick up a 2GS down the line just bec it has sentimental value for me and i still think its hard to beat when its modded.
Wish i had more than 1 car garage lol.
