Buy a 335. It's cheaper in the end, plus you'll have powertrain warranty.

I think you'd be pretty happy with the 335.. Read around, everyone with them is happy like little school girls that just got puppies for their birthday.*

*Minus the fuel pump issue..

damn right it is, but ill miss all the little gadgets and stuff . Just the car with sport package itself, does anyone know the weight saving it can have compared to an all out packaged car. 0-60 improvements?

I could imagine once the new m3 comes out, there will be a lot of 335's floating around for good prices.. It seems the 335 is satisfying people's needs right now, but I could see a lot of people moving up to the m3 when it is available. It seems like an in-between car to me to a group of people. I could imagine you'd get a good deal when a 335 owner gets their m3 and needs to get rid of the 335. The same way there were a lot of 330's around for good prices when the 335 came out. Just my $0.02.

Thanks for all the input. Yea i gather they will drop but it will be harder to find a lower priced 335 with low mileage then one with higher mileage which i am not really looking for. but either way i will be happy i have a B M W or in my view the Best Motor vehicle World wide
