One great car
I've owned my 335 coupe since 2007. Run flats can be a little harsh when going over bumps but overall if you want a great looking cruiser that has fantastic power, excellent mileage and is very reliable this one's for you.

amazes every time
could not be happier with this car. when you want excitement, this car delivers. the power is incredible and instantaneous from the turbos. the handling is sharp and responsive. when you want a relaxing car, it is quiet, easy to drive and comfortable. looks fantastic. as fast as most sports cars, far more luxurious. fuel mileage is good for a twin turbo car. back seat is comfortable for a coupe, plenty of leg room for most adults. get one.

If you dont like fast and hard driving go with 328
BMW 335i is build to be driven hard I had 135i brand new for one year 60000miles no problems what so ever Chip tuned with ALPINA chip 420 hp on crank dynoed Change OIL as soon you see it going down on your board computer do not go for 15000 miles and remember at least every 6 months oil change no matter what. Use only castrol oil full synthetic EUROPEAN FORMULA! Or Motul oil HPFP no issues sorry for CA you guys have bad fuel which affects your HPFP but you can use octane booster to prevent it. Car is very comfortable if you are on the good build road the seat position is one of the best out there. Steering give you all feed back from the road(the reason why lexus and mercedes and audi drivers think its not comfortable. Its called feeling the road and handling) Its been the same for my 335i Chiped with ALPINA chip plus aef intake around 450hp GPS shows near 200mph M3 and M5 stock not fast enough This car is not for everyone only the one who really like to push it hard and drive it daily The gasoline in the US has 10% ethanol which eats plastics inside your HPFP if you leave it standing around for too long "weekend drivers" All of you who know how to appreciated the Ultimate Driving Machine have fun driving it ......

Buyer Beware, Reliability Concerns
2007 BMW 335, 2-door Coupe, 6-speed manual, Sport Package. I bought the car from a BMW dealer with the CPO warranty. I owned it for 6-months, 8k miles, and then traded it in for a big loss. That was my third BMW, and maybe my last. Pros: Twin turbos are real fast. Beautiful exterior styling. Fun to drive. I averaged 28 MPG on the highway. Excellent brakes. Cons: Reliability issues. If you are considering the 335, research the fuel pump issue. The fuel pump problem is discussed all over most BMW forum websites. The car will leave you stranded without warning. Other issues include: the automatic seat belt distributor rarely worked correctly and odd electrical issues. I had the Sport Package which has a very harsh ride and the sport seats are hard and uncomfortable. The run flat tires are BMW's huge mistake because they make a lot of noise, have a short life, are expensive, and apparently BMW never considered what happens if you get a flat when you are not convenient to a BMW dealership. There is no spare tire. There is no dipstick. BMW recommends changing the oil every 15k miles. When I bought the car it had 22k miles and it had only had the oil changed once in its lifetime. I got rid of it at 30k miles and it still had only one oil change in its lifetime, yikes! If you wear polarized sun glasses, you can't see the radio display.

Fun expensive car
This car is very quick wether it be 0-60 or 40-120.... It's very fun car especially when I turn off the traction control but when you turn it off you have to be I full control. Very cool car with a great interior design and luxury. I love the car but It cam tend to give problems here and there but the warranty and the beautiful free maintnance always has it covered. It's Sedona but the only problem is that it's expensive. I bought it used and is still about $30k

lots of fun and settles into an efficient mode
All that the 3 series is known for, handling, power, interior craftsmanship. Fantastic acceleration and when you settle down into a cruise mode to eat miles it rewards you efficiency 28-31 mpg. If you cruise at the speed limit a bit higher. Reliability...careful here twin turbo 335i has recalls on fuel pump and late in '07 and beyond with the sport pkg an added oil cooler, not on 07 models built in 06. Big test coming up as it runs ~240F @70F outside. I must be able to cross the desert in +110F heat. Hope its stays at 240.

335i Sedan w/SportPkg
The interior is low quality. The steering wheel plastic near thumb switches wear fast. Seat leather is not the quality you would expect. Lots of reliability issues with this car(use google) The car is fast and is very fun to drive. I've owned for 3 months. 68000mi on Odo

One of the best convertibles
I have used many cars of different brands, including most of the US, German, Japanese and Korean manufacturers. The 335i convertible even tops my last car a special edition 330xi coupe thats only available in Germany. The Germans still produce the best cars in the world. Hope They continue their great Job!

e92 is great
I have owned e46 330Ci previously and e92 335i is a better car overall. Increased power is apparent as soon as you touch the accelerator. Handling is much improved (over e46) and the ride is compliant (not overly stiff). Having run-flat tires gives one piece of mind, however, ride and performance would be much improved with regular summer performance tires. Fuel economy is decent - with cruise control at 75mph on 500 mile trip I saw 29-30mpg. Center console styling/ergonomics on the other hand seem like they were designed by a 3 year-old kid. Today's Hyundai/Kia have much better consoles. There is still no off button for the climate control! As far as reliability, I've had rear roller blind, spark plugs, and injectors replaced so far under warranty due to failure. Hopefully, HPFP (high pressure fuel pump) does not go out. Then again, it's probably not a question of if but when.
