Well, i personally love the clean look it leaves when they are debadged. I have debadged every car i have owned since i was a kid. However i can understand your point cause its an IS. If it was a m3 i would not debadge that. However most people dont know what the 335is is compared to the standard 335i. In fact i am coming from an Audi, and I am a huge german car fan. I have owned 2 Audi's, 2 VW's, 3 Mercedes' and this is my 2nd BMW and i didnt even know what the 335is was until i test drove it. Then i loved it and went home and read up on the differences between the 335i and the 335is and said, oh, this is definitely the car i want. So since most people dont know, i would rather go with the clean look with no badges. I know its an IS and thats all that matters to me. I dont need to show off.

No i know a tech at the bmw that is goin to warranty it with my stuff on. He does all the work for us here. Always a plus.

I drive my car pretty hard daily.

But that time i wasnt and went to shift from 3rd to 4th and i hear a pop sound. Looked back and a shit load of white smoke. Pulled over and oil was dripping out of the exhaust. Got it towed it there hopefully it wont take long. lol

Cool

I like debadged and have done it to my Sport truck and other vehicles but the 'is' just seems a unique and somewhat rare OEM Beast. I chose to leave it at is. And do some engine and cosmetic mods but leaving it looking factory as much as original as I can.

I'm still debating between the 335is and the M3.

How many 335is owners here chose their car over the M3 and why? Aside from price.

TEST DRIVE





370tq vs 295tq did it for me. The 335is is quicker off the line.
Plus, price & Gas-Guzzler Tax. And, the M4 making it undesirable.

I had to get out of my 2011 335i QUICk (Long story). So i went to my dealer ready to purchase a new M3 off the showroom floor, but they only had a convertible. The next step down was a 335is, fell in love with it and took it home.

Honestly, I have been kicking myself in the arse ever since, for not getting a M3. But given the circumstances at the time I had to get a new car that day.

it was unique, only last IS model was the 325iS back from the 90's and those were fairly exceptional cars.

if you're into modding or want to start modding you have way more options with the N54 and non-M car and mods will be "cheaper" too.

M3 is a beautiful car and i wish everyday i just had a coupe on the side for track occasions.. but after driving/borrowing my friend's for 3 days.. and where i live, it really was not a practical decision to get the M3. BUT cant wait to get the new F80 M3 Wishing my lease was up already

Who has had the current BMW Performance Suspension installed on their 335is?
How would compare it to the stock sport suspension?
