My 335i Review

RaptorKTM · 09-11-2006, 09:53 PM

Let me just get down to it. Once inside the car i felt much more confortable and safe. I was able to really find a perfect posture within seconds. The interior layout is just about the same as our e90's except the chrome accents which surround the knobs on the vehicle. The 335 which i drove had all options excluding navigation, and confort access. The inside felt much wider then our e90's and less clusterfobic. The car i drove had the a manual transmission. The clutch on the e92 was a huge change. it had the best feel but i dont want to get into that much because its diffrent for everyone. So now to the fun stuff. After starting the car, the car had a very nice rumble to it and you could just hear it screaming for you to floor it. So after getting on the way I immediatly noticed that the car had no delay in the throttle. You give it gas and it revs. Now in this car if found it much easier to give it just the right amount of gas to get moving. Infact even on hills i was able to get the car to move without the use of the gas, very impressive. The car had 0 turbo lag and in my opinion can easliy keep up with an m3. The 335 due to the fact that it has more torque then an m3 is impressive on its own. Even in 6th gear the car was pulling and pulling, the need to downshift is minimal. I was so impressed with this car that i actually ordered one today. If you have more specific question feel free to ask here. i hope i got most of the points I am in a slight rush and I will re read this later. Please excuse and spelling errors. Thanks
