Hey what's up guys I'm in need of a little advice ... So my cousin and I have been looking around for a 335i. We found one 07 like pepsi blue with peanut butter interior ... Niceee around 40,000 miles 07 got it down to 25,500 from 26,000 dealer said that's the best they can do. That's not the issue I wanted to know any flaws, sounds ext I should be looking for ? The car is being sold as is no warranty ... And any good aftermarket warranty I should be looking for...

As far as I know there have been numerous issues with the high pressure fuel pump (HPFP) in 35i engines. Check if the pump has been updated to the latest version.

Is at a BMW dealer? If so, get the service record from the dealer. Has the HPFP been replaced (more than once?!)? There was a recall for the 535's and the 335 is the same engine so I'm sure the recall applies to that car as well. Make sure the HPFP was replaced under the recall...
