Ummmm 335ic new car smell!!!!!

Gotta Love that new car smell, w/ leather to boot.

Let my Evo go , traded it in on a black beauty 335i. So far Im loving the Bimmer, lotsa torque, all kinds of features.

Yet another Evo convert...... Here are a few pics. the BMW dealer had some nice cars on the shoroom floor. And then I seen mine,,,,, Fell in love at first site.

Dont miss the Evo one bit. Its been alot of fun here on Evom! A ton of Imfo, and I have learned alot. You guys have the best run site I have ever came across, Keep up the good work!

Enjoy guys and gals,,,,,,, and pick up some of my Evo Parts!!!!

Good choice, I like them as well. After I graduate I'll hopefully be able to buy something like that in addition to my Evo. Hope you enjoy it! And now you have a car with a warranty!!!

I thought 335i meant it was a sedan. Is that how the older models were designated?
I am not to mad about all these converts. I remember when I got my car in 05 it was the first in town, and now there about 7 and countless more on 9. Ive noticed alot of younger guys rocking the 335 now, but dollar for dollar the evo is way more attainable.

Sex on wheels. Gota love the black with Dakota Black leather and aluminium trim. Mine is Dakota Black leather with aluminium trim as well.

Was your manual or step?. Don't you feel like this car is so well built and fast?, the quality, equipment, performance, warranty,gas mileage,looks makes this car perhaps one of the best choices out there. BMW really nailed on this model

Congrats!!


Carlos

Nice car, there is no feeling like a BMW car from my past experience.

Black is nice but hard to maintain in pristine condition, I'm a Titanium fan


if you can answer these questions it would be great.

how much is it costing you per month?
did you lease or finance?
how much out of pocket for down payment with all fee's?
how much did they give you for the EVO?

Yep Carlos ditto everything you said.

Its kinda cheesey but the ultimate driving machine does say an awful lot about this car. Only grip I have is the cup holders are way way too shallow. Any drink is top heavy , and that sucks cause I miss my morning coffee. Now I actually have to make my own! Life sucks.

I have the 6mt. Feels like your grabbing a rubber chicken leg and the throws are about 3 times as long as my evo. However I had a karboy short shifter in the Evo. Otherwise the shifts are very smooth, ie no griding issues. Il find a ss for the bimmer.

Drag, as far as the imfo you asked, thats kinda personal, you can do you own homework and get an idea. But the dealer gave me $18k for the Evo with 50k miles. Cool

But the real deal in this car is the 6sp Step. You really have to drive one to know.

Mine was pre speced, a dealer trade I happened to fall across. I got the car 3 weeks from speaking with Husker Auto. However if I had to choose my own, It would be white, coral red, and 6spd. Steptronic!!!! With paddels of course!

I will be waiting for the 135i coming out soon. It will be priced in the mid-30's, will have the same engine as the 335i, however, will be about 200 lbs lighter

Nice car.

I know what you mean about the shifting. My M3 has a really long throw as well. It's not so bad for normal driving, and its a lot smoother than the Evo. BMW is great, but I think my next car will be a Porsche.
