I love the 335 coupe. I miss the feel of my 325 Ci. Hmmmmm.

535i has 300hp right?

what we have like 250?

300/300

Yeah most dyno plots are showing significantly more than 300/300 at the crank...like try in the 325-335 area...
( go over to the e90post.com turbo section , I'm not going to look it up). In fact the new 7's are putting out like 324 with the same motor , and different software revision ( 32.1/2/3) which is the same on the new E8x/9x/6x....

A 530 or 545 or e46 m3 really not much trouble for a N54 motored car, at all , then if it had any type of tune on it 360-380 with out batting an eye. The newer proceeds and JB3's are near the 400hp mark.

Of course you would get to deal with the wonderful HPFP issues too...

Juicebox a 335 or a 535 and it is crazy fast.

there are some M5's for about 40k around the area but theyre near warranty end, also I dont know how to drive manual.. and I hear smg's auto mode is very jerky maybe ill wait for a 650i lol they're dropping to low 30's around here.. but I could jump on a used 335 coupe for about 24k but it doesnt have idrive/nav decisions decisions.... and 50k for a new (used) m3 is too much though thats what I'd really want
