looks nice but i rather have a sedan 335 but enjoy it.

 

Nice, enjoy it in good health. Did you get a good deal on the BMW?

 

Id like to buy your exhaust but I have no money after the car purchase lol

 

Looks good..enjoy!

 

Pretty good deal - Most BMWs, including Ms, can be had for close to or about $500 over invoice. They also have killer lease deals.

 

Damn, I love M3s. I wish I don't have a mortgage right now.

 

Sweet looking car. From everything I've read the 335i is pretty much the benchmark in its class.

I would love to know how the BMW coupe compares with the G coupe. The steering and handling on my coupe (6MT with sport suspension and LSD) are noticeably better than those on my G35X so it makes me wonder if the G and BMW coupes might be close in terms of steering and handling. I do not find that my coupe is any more powerful than the X so I'd guess the BMW is still tops there.

My coupe rides rough though and I've heard that the beauty of the BMW 3 series is that they handle well and yet still maintain a civilized ride quality.

Susprised to hear about the smoothness of the engine. Would have expected it to be waaay better than a G. Both my coupe and my X sound like they are going to fly to pieces above 5k rpm.

 

Very nice!!!

 

Really? My G sounds powerful at 5K.....will sound even better when my R2C gets here

A G will ride rougher than a 3 series

 

definitely get juicebox 3 or whatever version they have now and splash in some 93+ octane if you really want to have some fun

congrats, how much did you sell your g for?

 

I test drove a 2010 G coupe before I bought the 335. The transmission is definitely buzzier on the G than the 335. However, ride quality on the BMW isn't all that great due to the harshness of the run-flat 225-35-19F and 255-30-19R tires. These are some serious rubber band sized stock tires. My BMW is not really lowered and when I hit potholes, they felt every bit as bad, if not worse, than my G lowered with Eibach springs on 19" rims/tires.

I'm surprised about your impression on how your engine sounds above 5K on your VQ35HR and VQ35DE motors. I felt my G pulled very hard to redline w/o too much ruckus. The SR20DE in my G20t felt like it was going to explode when I redlined it.

The BMW inline 6 is smoother, but IMO, not substantially more so than a VQ35HR motor like the magazines claim. In fact, I would gladly trade to have slightly more roughness similar to the VQ's engine if it meant the BMW would pull hard to its redline of only 7K RPM.
