daily driven is now an uber lame excuse, but it is my reasoning. I don't like running mad camber with driving so much. 9.5/10.5 +4/+6 lets me run within oem camber specs as well as identical camber. when I get air before a leave/transfer for school, I'll relip half an inch front and rear.

Edit: also because r/a disks for Wilwood's W6A 6/4pot calipers coming in the next couple months.

Idk what I wanna do. I stayed up past 2 last night searching and reading every reliability and problem thread on bimmerpost and e90.com. theres a tonnnnnn of problems including major ones I'm not sure of I want to deal with. I'm going to test drive one on two weeks, but I doubt I'll want to move onto a car with tons of problems.

I have been considering selling mine and getting an 07 ip and just swapping all the parts over.

I have a 335i... Its a piece of ****. Been back to the dealer 4 times in 7 months. Under 60K miles. Worst car I've ever owned as far as reliability goes. I can't wait until I owe less than its worth so I can sell this b!tch and just get rid of the headache. I had my G for 4yrs and had problems with it ONCE. Don't do it unless you're buying a brand new one... & even still I wldnt recommend this car. Yes it's fast, it handles well, it's sexy, it's a head turner, it's incredibly easy to mod and build power... But what's the point if it's in the shop once a month for 1-2wks at a time? Not to mention you can't do any real power modifications while it's still under warranty. Not like the G where you never had to go to the dealer so they wld not find your mods... The dealer will be your second home. I hate this car... & I REALLY LOVED IT BEFORE I BOUGHT IT!!! Save yourself the headache and stay away. Or buy an older M3.

Overheating & going into limp mode thanks to the crappy FMIC. High pressure fuel pump has gone out on me twice.

Was really intrigued by 335i coupes. But the n54 engine has tons of problems, the top one being the fuel pump. Turbos have problems, wastegate rattles, etc.
