waited for 6 mths and now i drive....

Finally decided to buy a MR...convinced my wife..she agrees...but ended up buying a 335i.

So far I love the car and think made the right decision as my wife would be driving the car evryday ( I drive a civic hybrid to work 120 miles evryday). I feel incomplete that I dont have an EVO that I always wanted and at the same time very happy with the 335i. Just wanted to share my experience........

intake, chip, TBE and the 335i can have 420whp and 400trq to the wheels, that'll give you EVO like performance
