Sold the IS and picked me up a DIESEL!

I can't hate on your choice because I think the 335d is a nicely packaged car. I have a few friends that picked up the same car not too long ago. Congrats.

looks awesome, I'm a fan of the 335d just don't care for the diesel sound, and a white car might be a PITA keeping the rear bumpers from being black all the time lol j/k. nice car though

Thanks for all of the compliments guys! I have always found the CL bunch to be more civilized than the crew over on E90 Post. I would have to wear a flame suit if I posted up pic of my new Lexus over there.
Thank you very much. The sound is not to bad,,, no really! You can hear slight clacking at idle standing outside by the car, but when inside the car you would have no idea you were in a diesel. For that matter most people standing outside would have not ideas its a diesel either unless you told them. When I put a good quality premium diesel with high cetane (octane for diesels) the any clacking all but disappears. When I throttle it the engine has a nice V8 growl to it. And yes, no black smoke!

BTW, I had my first real kill the other night. Lined up with a 2010 S63 AMG at a stop light and had him by 3/4 of a car length up to about 100 until I shut it down, then he goes blowing by me - maybe that made him feel better. He was riding my azz the whole way home showing off his big bad AMG, it was a gratifying kill. His car did look sweet, all white, with black AMG wheels and tinted out. Beautiful cars.
