Took my car in for service Friday morning and my loaner was waiting for me there. Fully loaded (fullyyyyy) 09 335i. I know its not 5er but Ive always only received 328's as loaners. This car is a blast to drive, Ive put over 500miles on it in the past 2 days. Definitely a change from what Ive gotten used to. I think Im gonna tell my SA to take his timeeeeee lol.

The 3's are great cars. What they luck in size and luxury they more than make up in handling.
