Thanks Long and Jen for inviting us to test drive a 335i.

Props to Steve, the salesman at New Century BMW, for being such a cool guy despite our lead feet.

Ks frogman. The black car that was beside the z4 m, was a 3er right with 199 wheels? Did you take any shots of it?

I'm surprised you noticed that. I wasn't much interested in that car, because I was distracted by that Z4 M and the M6 in the showroom.

Here are some shots of Style 199 on the E90:

nice manual e92 335i. most of the US test drives cars seem to be auto. great exhaust note- very addictive.

I need a sedan, and I'd be foolish to upgrade so soon.

The 335i is the first turbocharged car I have driven that didn't sound or feel like a turbo car. The torque was strong even at the lower rpms, and I didn't feel the turbo lag one might expect.

I found the connector between the two mufflers interesting. I've seen crosspipes closer to the headers in other vehicles, but never like this.

climkt · 09-05-2006, 12:30 AM

hi frogman. got a question for u. would you get a e92 or e60 as a second car if u were in my shoes and had 4 kids and u are really not keen on mpv. i really love the e92 now.i am keeping my SG e90 of course.

e90_M32 · 09-05-2006, 12:33 AM

I was at Pacific BMW in Glendale this afternoon and saw the exact car in their showroom. Space Grey is definitely a color to consider.

Kfrogsman- thanks for the vid.
