Sick rides, after more than before!
Good upgrade. 335 has a lot of performance potential, but the cost of reliability stock or modded is pretty steep.

Hopefully still has warranty, enjoy the new bimmer!

I'm with llama, murder is still a crime.

congrats on the new car.... when I picked up the IS the 335 was also an option I just didn't want to have to worry about the reliability.... congrats though.

NICE! 335s are amazing vehicles. Alot of my buddies have these things tuned, FULL exhaust, intake, and they walk all ove e9x m3s (stock) For myself, here in calgary the dealer offers free scheduled maintanence on new and certified pre-owned so its not THAT bad. Youve done a great job already with the mods, keep em up!

ohh another thing to think about, which im sure you already know. Toss a Quaife LSD in that thing and that will be one of the best mods. its about 1500 for the part, ive diven both with it and without, and trust me, its a remarkable difference..especially in those turns

Wow is funny. I changed from BMW 335 4 doors tho to Lexus is 250. LOL. I did lost a lot of power But the lexus interior is what made me fall in love. I dont like the BMW leather unless is a 6 Series or higher and thats a lot of money. I miss the twinturbo tho. My IS is slow and waist a lot of fuel. LOL

Isnt there an upgrade for merino leather in the 3 series? If its not that option then yes, they call it leatherette. 5 & 6 series have the same leather..
