Just drove the BMW 335i.

Having owned the M5 for over a year now, and just driving the 335 around yesterday and this morning I can say I was still impressed with the 335i's performance. I was not expecting it to be as quick as it is.
No, it doesn't have the brute acceleration or the crisp tight handling the M has (which the M5 still doesn't have immacculate handling it's too heavy), but it is still a damn good car. I like the 335i a lot.
Only thing is, this one is an automatic with paddle shifters, and my M5 has the 6 speed manual. I hate automatics.
Having driven a turbo 300hp STI, and the 300HP turbo BMW, the STI is about equal to the 335i in acceleration and top end power.
Lol @ you calling the 335i grandma's shopping car. This bitch can move pretty damn good. Go drive one at your dealership there. I'm sure bmw's are abundant in your area, you may be impressed yourself.

lol haven't thought about that

hai
yes its was sad, tat thing is perfect too
more pure then the other BMWs out side the 850
I seen a BMW B7 Alipna the other day. That is one bad ass car. You don't see too many of those around. I have never drove a BMW, but I have driven a STI and a modded out Lancer EVO. Both are comparable to the 335i. I keep seeing this new Black M3 in my neighborhood. That is a bad ass little car. Sounds like a fucking airplane when it takes off from a stop.

"Go drive one" is good advice. most guys here just go by what the magazine articles tell them ...LMAO...
I've had a 335i since last Christmas. Nice car. Plus for whatever reason I see very few of them on the road, so you have the added perk of not seeing yourself coming and going constantly.
Unless you're autocrossing, then your LOL is based on presumption, not fact. Handling, the M5 is the better machine at 10/10th... straight line performance, very little difference at all.

or if your state doesn't allow studs.. sears blizzacks... drove on my 325i all winter, we had one storm that put 24" on the ground.. never had a problem..
great cars no doubt..
