I'm thinking of going the same route here. My E60 should be up for sale this summer.. thinking to trade it in for either 335i or IS 350.

Haha i'm serious! The E60 is way too big for my sister to drive it.

Are you satisfied with your IS ? I know it's pretty quick but how is the handling and comfort wise?

Ya I'm satisified with it for a second car... It's quick and very comfortable... handling is so so... BMW is better. the handling on the IS is equalivant to a BMW non sport in my opinion. so its not bad... just no BMW. For your sister either car would be great.

Perfect! My mum's old GS300 was very comfortable too. I'll schedule a test drive sometime next wk for my sis. Do you mind letting me know how much over invoice did you pay for the IS?

Yup exactlly... why buy a M3 if the 335 is just as fast
If you're asking the question based purely on straight line acceleration then you've never driven an M3.

I have Driven the M3 and M5 FYI. and I know its a over all M package... but as a selling point that's what I'm saying... and no I was not asking.
