Its a matter of time before all the 335i boys are putting on M3 body kits.


If you see the two cars in person. As Mikebuzzsaw said, the M3 is way way more muscular.
As pictured, 335i looks better.

As for performance, I saw a new M3 (still with dealer tags) at a stoplight today when I was on my Yamaha R1 (1000 cc bike) and damn did that M3 really haul. I couldn't believe how fast it was. It kept up with me through 1st and second gear up to 70mph but then i took over (since the bike weighs a mere (390 lbs).

The new M3 is ridiculously fast.

The stock 19s are not powdercoated, they are brushed aluminum.

The stock 18s are powdercoated a gray or gun metal color.

That wheel gap on the M3 (sitting next to the lowered 335) looks huge!

Do it. The M3 sedan has plenty of room.
