The 335i is absolutely fully loaded of safety gadgets(Dymanic stability control, adaptive braking,adaptive steering,electric seats, 6 airbags and all safety array of safety features that a new era car has) In top of that add massive 13.6 rotors, 18" rims etc, etc. I am nor surpised of the weight but despite all I still think it is one of the fastest cars around for its underrated announced power

Carlos

will the 135 get all those features too?

It'll get enough of them to be a porker of a coupe.

I've been driving RWD for years in the snow. Get some decent snow tires and it's fine 99% of the time (there was an article in one of the car magazines some time ago that said the same thing).

Anyway, I think it looks quite ugly too. Same goes with the 335i, Z4, etc. It used to be that you could look at a BMW and they were instantly gorgeous to everyone. Now it's like people can't decide if they like the looks or not, and you always hear "the looks have grown on me". You never heard that quote coming from previous generations of BMWs.
