23 July 2022: used OEM DME (professionally cloned)
The car developed persistent error (300C/Intake camshaft sensor electric short circuit to B+). I've replaced the intake camshaft position sensor (twice) and rang all the wires and everything was fine. Due to extensive diagnosis (which took months), it was determined that the DME was bad. The code could be reset after the car sat overnight, but the code would return after about 20min drive. At that point, the code would never reset and would come up right away, throwing the car into limp mode. I found a DME on eBay with the same part number and had it cloned to mine (I still have the original DME), so that I did not have to replace the keys, etc.

3 November 2023:
- OEM driver rear window regulator (have new passenger side, not installed)

The car is stored in an indoor storage unit. The OEM wheels were powdercoated in stock color while the car was in Germany and they are in like-new condition. The headlight lenses could be replaced due to hazing/microcracks. The shadowline window trim could be repainted as the top edge has faded/burnt out (common on E90s). The front bumper cover could use a respray. Mechanically, the car is in good condition and there are no warning lights. I have replaced a plethora of various pieces that simply melt away on E9x (passenger grab handle, trunk release button, cup holders, engine start/stop button). Car starts right up and pulls strong through all the gears. The car was never involved in any accidents. All paintwork is original (for better or worse given the mileage). I take the car out of storage once every few weeks to keep the fluids flowing and battery charged.

This car has been a pleasure to own and it will be a sad day to see it go. I'd like to let it go to a good home, to someone who will take care of this car as well as I did. I've owned it for over 9 years and put close to 100k miles on it. Drove it from Connecticut to California, then to Texas, and back to California. From there it got onto a boat in LA and sailed to Bremerhaven, Germany; where I drove it for about 2 years. The only reason I’m selling this car is that I have two other cars - 2020 M2 Competition and 2020 750i xDrive. The 335i simply does not get driven enough and it pains me to see it parked.

I think that's about it but if anyone has questions, please free to ask! I’d be also happy to take additional pictures/videos.
