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.

Do I suppose to have any chance against him? Or is this normal..
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.

Here's a way to get a set much cheaper.

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.
