Just chip the 335i and it will be equal to if not better than the m3. Oh the wonders of turbos.

you'll lose your warranty with the Xede also, so I guess we're back to square one.

If you did your research a Xede can be taken of in 15 mins and leaves no trace of it behind. The ECU doesn't even know it's there. So no it won't void your warranty at all. Even if you left it on, I HIGHLY doubt Vishnu put something out that would mess up your engine so the dealer can't prove that it caused any problem.

But then again I just happen to think any sore comments are due to the fact that there's a new and improved 3series coupe.

Maybe that was my bro...lol. He's to be out there looking for trouble since he picked up the car recently. He told me that he was able to pull on a prev gen M5 from 120-140 and stop much better. No doubt due to the lighter wieght and great stock 13.7" brake setup.

He and I picked up the car in Germany in Oct and got to take it to the Nurburgring and the car was awesome, but it needed a stiffer/lower suspension. The car pulled hard up to its 153mph (@ 5400rpm) governor on the Autobahn, leading me to believe it can probably reach 165-170 easily in stock form.

The 335i is sick and the Vishnu (he's got one one order) makes it even sicker. Definately a force to reckon with. Now if only I could get Urban with his APS TT to run into my bro and obliterate his @$$ to shut him about my G..........damn sibling rivarly, he's got me beat for now.......

Nice kill Paul... Similiar story for me except from a dead stop .. I left him about 2 car lengths with a passenger in my car and none in his . Pulled up to the next light and he wouldnt even look at me even though he rev'd at me from the start.

too bad the bimmer still looks like a sedan and the rear end is really uninspiring. I rather have a slower, older car that looks much better. If all we cared was straightline performance we'd all be driving Hemis and Mustangs.

Is the 335i sedan the only one that has TT or is it the coupe as well?

Word. The rear end on the 335i is hideous and the rest of the car isn't that hot either. The headlights are nice, that's about it.

When I first saw a G Coupe on the street, I thought it was the most beautiful car at the time. The 335i just doesn't have that head turning look.

I'd like to see a kit that at least fixes the ugly rear on the 335i.
