And that's why I sold my 335i
Just wanted to share this with you guys.
New supersprint exhaust on my M. ![]() I almost almost went for a 325d e91 after selling my 335i cause of the high fuel consumption. Looked at a few. But then went and got a M instead? ![]() Hope you enjoy ![]()

You sold the 335i because of supersprint?
![]() Sounds good, quieter than mine that's for sure.

Just didn't like the handling and throttle response of the N54 335i.
And of course always wanted a M3 ![]() Was much louder before.... too loud with the backbox mod. ![]()

i suppose it sounds great if your in the mood, ive done the whole loud exhausts thing, but i prefer to go unnoticed these days, i dont want the attention exhausts like that always attract.
Wouldnt be so bad if they only sounded like that when you were driving enthusiastically but you have to put up with extra noise 24/7. I like to hear the exhaust only when i want it to be heard and thats not very often as i mostly just take it easy.....guess im just getting old i dunno. |

300 miles a week? Tried to save but then I thought, what the hell. If not now, when?! I spend around £10-15 on fuel every day now since getting the M. Can't save much money at the moment and mods, but not married yet so.... ![]() Quote:
![]() ![]() Totally agree, BUT! not that much faster. Really don't find it that fast compared. And I have floored it from 1st to 8000rpm with everything turned max. Don't find myself screaming when accelerating but corners like on roller coaster rails! Quote:
![]() Also if I'm super gentle, its quiet anyway. The car is so well insulated from sounds. And save a few pennies on fuel driving gently (not that i do!) Quote:
![]() Thanks! ![]() Oh and I really didn't want to miss out on the V8 E92. My favourite shape and engine so far. Really not digging turbos. So had to buy it now instead of the 320d. When I might not have a choice in the future with family / kids.... ![]() Quote:

![]() Don't smoke, don't drink, don't club, don't do drugs is my excuse. ![]() I use to get around 26mpg with my 335i town driving without trying to save at all, now with the M its' 17.5mpg. Unless I try really really hard and then its 23mpg. Or 30 mpg ish on motorway cruise. But the difference is negligible. So I don't bother saving anymore. Just drive how I feel like. ![]()
