Looks like we got different ends of the SULEV stick, got my 2011 328i from Detroit and live in Ohio so the warranty didn't stick around. Agreed though, even without a tune these are fun cars to drive and I feel like Id either lose my money or my mind trying to keep a 335i alive. Some people dont even get to feel over 200hp in their lifetimes, gotta be proud of our bulletproof engines
