Brown, Oyster or Black interior

MUST be 6MT

Looking to purchase sooner than later. Send me a pm with what you have

For the most part your request makes sense but I think you need to ask yourself one question, N54 or N55? 2010 would make the car an N54 whereas 2011 would make the car an N55. 335is was N54 for all years if I recall correctly.

If you're looking for an N54 then consider opening your searches to 2009 model year cars as well, that will give you the most possible options considering the LCI (bumper/headlight change mid-generation) occurred in 09. I was in a similar boat as you and ended up with an 09 335i m-sport with 6mt after going back and forth for months.

2010 models supposedly have an open injector recall too which would is nice, 2009 models did not get that.

Definitely be open to flying out and driving the car back or having it shipped because they are not easy to find. I flew to NC and drove 7 hours back to PA for mine. Worth it though!

Thanks for the tip. I'm open to traveling and/or shipping as I've purchased cars this way in the past. Still going back and forth on the e9x 335 vs M3

Eh. This may just be my personal opinion being a boost addict, but after owning my N54 335i there's no way in hell I would buy an E9x M3. F80 is a beast but way out of my price range. E9x N54 vs E9x M3 I would take the N54 all day long. M3s are typically $10-20k more than a 335i which is an unbelievable difference when you consider how much power you can make with the 335i. Sure it's not an M3 and certain goobers might not stop you on the street to tell you how cool your car is but I'm ok with that.

My car also has M3 control arms and Konis + Eibachs so the handling is a lot better than a stock 335i even with the sport package. I'm sure there are a bunch of ways in which the M3 is better than the 335i but for the difference in price I can't justify it to myself.

You also have the option of slapping a big single on the 335i and making retarded power if that's your thing. You can't really do that with an E90 M3 unless you've got deep pockets.

How’s reliability on the 335? I came across a pretty clean 2010 that I’m close to pulling the trigger on. Is the N55 more reliable or should I be good with the N54?
