Which looks better... 335i with body kit or M3?



I personally am not a fan of both the looks.

335i has smoother, more flowing lines. Beauty!

M3 no question.


Plus the 335i is lowered and has 19 inch CSL reps on.

The M3 also has the stocker 18 inchers, not even the 19 inch 220M.

+1 That picture biases the 335i due to lowering + 19" wheels.

I never realized how muscular the M3 is comapred to the 335i. It's like 335i's older jock stupider brother.

There's no question which is the better performer. The question asked "which looks better?".
