Dont do it unless you are going to drive the car STOCK. BMW has been cracking down on performance enhancement and void the warranty of the car from various tuners except Dinan. Stock 335 is NO FUN.

its true the main reason why most people buy the 335i is because of its tuning capability. But for me... I really love the M3...IS-F is nice..but at heart i have always been a HUGE M fan and porsche fan...

well considering this is my first car, i'd probably keep this as my daily driver and pick up an evo, sti or s2000 later as my weekend/track/backup daily driver. of course living in the snow belt, sti's are way too common. an evo ix would be nice.

umm... no... "the main reason why most people buy" the 335i are buying the badge not the tuning capabilities of the car... most 'enthusiasts' buy the 335i for the tuning capability... dont include the 'snobs/highnose' ppl in the same class as the 'enthusiast'... even thou its the same when it comes to BMW

I'm actually looking for a track car too. Debating between a used S2k or Miata. Thoughts?
