Nice new Bimmer, Calgary_G. Wish we'd seen one/some/all of your G's at some meets!

They are pretty nice,,,, but when you have to "pay" extra for the color you want, in add. to being thousands more,,,, I will be staying with Infiniti, for some time....

^^ Just fyi, you can do the same at Infiniti, if for example you want an Aspen Pearl sedan, it's an extra $300 (at least here in Canada)

SwivelHips almost 16K posts!!! You rock. Thanks for the kind words guys and I bought it but lots of warranty and not juicing it as long as i have warranty; for me it is fast enough.
If it gives me grief I will let this forum and every bimmer forum know. I agree the fact that it is covered I still don't want the hassles. I like it a lot so far but I was also very very happy with the reliability, ride, look and VALUE of the G's. Just time for a change.....

Plus the paint on the German cars have to be better then the Nissan/Infiniti. My Altima and my Infiniti has to have the thinnest paint I've ever owned.

Very nice 335, should be a blast to drive. We had nothing but problems w/ our 02 745Li but those have had horrendous relaibility issues every time a new generation comes out, the 3s have been much better. As long as you just get a new one when your warranty is up you'll be in decent shape. I still think the best BMW strategy is getting a fresh CPO, drive it a couple years and repeat.
If Infiniti can't get their paint issues remedied I'm thinking our next ride will be an CPO Audi A5 or if I can get my wife to forget about our problems w/ the 7 than a CPO 3 coupe or maybe even a new 135 (if I can fit in it, lol)

I am betting you haven't owned a Subaru.

We are in the same boat. I have two choices, either try to snag a deal on a 09 M3, or wait for the F10 to drop. Either way, my next vehicle will be a BMW.


Congrats OP, the 335 is a beautiful & sweet ride.
