I agree. It adds a little mystery. If someone knows little enough to think it's a 328, then I wouldn't care about their opinion anyway. I think anyone who even knows the difference between a 328 and 335 will know it's a 335. Anyone who can't tell the difference probably couldn't even tell you the series without the badge and be left wondering. I like that.

I disagree. If someone is informed enough to know a 335i is crazy fast and a 328i isn't, they're informed enough to know the 335i has the dual exhausts and the 328i doesn't.

Heh, it's crazy man. I'd say it's ~5C (40F) out right now. Chilly, but for Dec 31st? I will take it. We've seen maybe 3-4cm of snow in the last month. I took this pic today, sunny and beautiful!

49F and partly sunny, not a sign of snow yet this year so the cars are still getting washed every week.

OK, the wording confused me when you started talking about people thinking its a different series.

I guess it's just my experience. I'm still waiting for mine to be delivered but anyone I've shown pictures to didn't know what it was. It could be the area I'm in also. I've only seen a couple on the road so far.

I would debadge it... it looks cleaner that way. If a person can't tell its a 335i without the badge then it wouldn't mean anything to that type of person anyway if it was on there.
