A friend of mine back home has an 07 335i pearl blue... it's gorgeous. I went for a ride in it once and wasn't too impressed. He got the paddle shifters over the stick shift and we also had a 400 lb passenger lol, but it seemed pretty quick. I never got a chance to race him this summer cuz he was breaking it in. next year i'll lay the smack down tho!
it must suck to have to park for your car for Winter... :Ot: ... gotta love endless summer!Quote:

The specs are out for the 135i though and its weight will be "Weight is 3,380 lbs, or about 200 lbs less than the 335i Coupe" It says 0-60 in 5.1 seconds (which is typical conservative from BMW). However, I just really like the looks of a 335i and not so much the 135i, but since hte 135i is cheaper and lighter (so faster!) its going to come down to just how it looks in person for me!
With just full exhaust, fmic, and Procede, 370-380rwhp would be a great fun car!
I'm sure you know better than I do, but the weight you quoted above is BMW's "unladened" weight I think (I think that is the term they use). For a base curb weight, as would be calculated by US or Jap car companies, wouldn't the weight be closer to 3,200lbs?Quote:

yup im going to buy 135i, some of my friends tell me to trade in my t/a to get it but im not sure if i want to do that
I really was looking hard at the 135 until BMW released the price and weight specs. Suffice it to say, an LS3 powered camaro (presumably) has jumped over the 135 on my short list.Quote:

ya i saw a "stock" one on youtube run a 13.2 but they put down 360rwhp with intake and a tune.
this thread is 5 months old.... why bring it back
If you can drive your M6, you won't have a problem. The 335 is a high 13 second car (13.7-13.9) range, and though a respectable performer, not quite in LS1 range.
Oh wait...I just looked at the date of this thread...oops.Quote:
