Awesome car, great looks, performance, german engi
I love my 335is sedan. It has the sport and winter packages, was about 50k when new, I got mine for $5500 with 150 k on it. 3.0 twin turbo motor runs great, loads of torque and power. 0-60 under 5 seconds and 30 mpg on the highway is a great combination. N54 motor has forged internals and is upgradable to 600 horsepower with mostly bolt-ons, check You Tube to see how this car is being bought by people looking to get big horsepower for relatively little money. It's not exactly cheap to do, but cheaper than most. This is an amazingly beautiful car as well, mine is black and when detailed, looks like a brand new car that gets thumbs up and positive comments from strangers at 7-11. I painted the silver sport rims gloss black, bought a $150 carbon fiber rear trunk spoiler and added some M badges and the car looks great.. I think it is one of the nicest looking sedans ever made. Get one before they disappear like old Supras, 240 sx's, and Datsun 510's from the 70s. Great car.

Money pit
Don’t get me wrong, I had a great time with this car but as the age and value dropped, the repair bills stacked. After owning it for 8 years, this 13 year old car still looked amazing, but the repairs far outweighed and reasonable thought to keep it. I heard this year and model is great for a few years, then get rid of it as the little things and sensors take their toll. I really should have moved on from this car many guests ago. The long range value versus repairs do not make sense. If you want a project car and have the extra money, get it. I walked away and sold the car when the Quoted repairs far outweighs the value. Plus, I only drove it about 30 miles a week.

Tuning potential
This car has put me through a lot, good and bad, but it’s been my most favorite car to own. Mine is a 6MT and is the most fun thing to drive. The tuning potential on this car is insane and i’ve had a blast building it.

Great used car
We bought our 2007 335i in 2008 as a CPO. It was a great deal. CPO and used are the way to go if you want to save a ton of money. It was an awesome commuter car. We still miss it terribly. We only got rid of it after 7 years and it was almost time to do some major maintenance. Plus, it was only RWD, and my wife ended up getting stuck in snow a few times. So we traded it in for an AWD Mercedes C350. But, the 335 was a super fun and affordable car. Nothing went wrong with it in the 7 years that we owned it. And buying used meant we basically only paid $250/month for a car that would’ve cost $500/month to lease. Also, we put a “juice box” chip in it and gave it an instant HP increase for very little money. Can’t beat it. Still miss it.

Timeless style but big money on repairs
Love the looks of this car...performance is amazing, but be prepared for expensive repair & maintenance bills. Find a good indie mechanic or be able to diy because expensive things will go wrong after 100k miles. Nevertheless I love this car...super fun to drive!

Great car!
The BMV 335I is one of the best cars I have ever had to drive. I would highly recommend it because it’s a smooth ride and powerful powertrain.

Most fun I've had driving a Car
The leather seats have a warming feature and the ride is smooth and comfortable. The Dash Cam and rear view camera help me feel safe.
