so today i went to drop by Trendix in Santa Ana to talk with Steve who is going to lower my car with h&r sports springs. when i pulled up i saw he had an alpine white BMW 335i. as curious as i was, i started to talk to him about his car and how fast it was. he told me the car was 300hp and 300lbs-ft torque (according to motortrend). so Steve generously took me for a spin. WOW

. this car is amazingly fast!! btw, his car is stock still b/c of some BMW recall. in 3rd gear (manual) he was at 100mph!!

so i was wondering if anyone here has tried/attempted racing a 335i??

The question should be will any 335 owners want to engage in some spirited driving with 545/550 owners? There are a few 545/550 owners wanting to see how the bi-turbo inline 6 compares to the V8.
