I would definitely check and see if your dealer would. Otherwise, if u want to spend a little more, there are still a decent amount of brand new 335d out there they could get for you. There is a ton of incentive money on the 2011 335ds so it would be more but not as much as you might think. My buddy who traded his in got 10k+ off of sticker.

You did great! Actually enough to disappoint me. I did exactly the same as you and just picked up a 2011 dealer owned service 335ds. 18k mles. I guess I over paid at $18,4. Traded an Acura.
Blown away by the M57y engine. Although, the car itself is bugging me quality-wise. They didn't have the sport package available, I got the exact packages you have. Can't get used to the thin steering wheel, the seats are probably the worst of any car I've driven lately, iPod interface sorta blows. And WTH with the cup holders? I didn't pay attention to that when I test drove it, but damn guys, a stickered $50k plus car and you can't put your coffee anywhere but in the passengers lap? I had an X3 a few years ago (2005) and I do faintly remember a love/hate relationship with that thing, because BMW fills it's vehicles with quirkiness in design. It brought back those feelings. Because I love this Drive/Train of the 335d that it overcomes the imperfections for now. But more keep coming to surface as I drive it. Sorry to turn the post in "about me". It was a long way of saying you did great on the price. Enjoy the car. If you find any "coding" tips (DVD in motion, door unlock, speed display...etc) please share. |

Idk how the seats are in those. Mine has the M sport but the handling is a disappointment compared to the real M3. If I end up keeping mine I'll probably get a KW setup and a Wald body kit. I keep thinking about selling it but every time I switch back to it from the M3 I can't do it. It's a 2011 335d with 16k too.

I do agree about the cup holders. Totally useless. I will think of it as an anti spill measure to keep the interior clean. :-) |

Nice Car! I purchased a service loaner, and its been 10k of trouble free driving except an odd rpm issue. It was in great shape inside and out, and got it for 15k off sticker. Has all the options but L7 (I wish it had better than BASE stereo).
