Cool

Just wanted to know if anybody has any idea who might own a 335 coupe, white, non stock rims, that's had its badge updated to 355!??

So I was going home today and on the freeway, 101 south towards Hollywood, I noticed what I thought was a 335 coupe with an ///M body kit. At first glance, I noticed 4 muffler tips but I also noticed something was different about them, and immediately i notice the badge and think to myself, oh, nice mods and he kept true to the model... this was cuz i thought it had 335 on it.. it was kind of dark..

well he flew past me cuz i wasnt with my baby, was with a loaner, but when i exited, he was right there, waiting for the light to turn green and that's where i noticed the 3(5)5 i don't get it...

I'm gonna keep looking out for this car though and post some pics... it just isn't right... and my phone just had to be dead atm oh and the ///M body kit was actually just a modified stock bumper, haha

i got a good laugh out of the badge though... anyways, if he happens to ever read this, why did you put 355? BMW never even carried a x55 model... right?? I think i just confused myself

Ok, first of all, no pic = no glory!



I can't disagree though, unless it is the twin-turbo V8 under that hood with a bunch of mods, a 355 it is not.
Not to mention that a 355 is a Ferrari to which none is second IMHO

When I had my S550 I changed it to S555 for a day, I don't know why (boredom).

wow, what are the odds that I would find out today that this car is owned by my grandma's next door neighbor's son!!!

I used to hang out with him and today my other friend who still hangs out with him came by my house with the car! lol, i started to laugh when i saw the badge again and told him how much of a laugh i had when i first noticed it. my friend also has a 335 and was going to change his to 355 also but i think i changed his mind

anyways, i got a pic this time
