Went today to our local BMW dealer and they had recieved their first E92's.

I sat in a Titan Silver 335iA with semileather sportseats and -steering wheel,
the car was without iDrive and have 18" Style 189 wheels with Bridgestone Potenza RF's.

Boy what a car.
The looks are so harmonic and I couldn't find a angle that I wouldn't liked.
The seat, steeringwheel and all felt at first sit just perfect.

But the car has to be ordered with PDC, the rear was fully impossible to see
from the drivers seat!

I also got a fresh brochure and I will get a testdrive in two weeks time with
a 335i automatic.

The price overhere: About 70,000 € or about 90,000 $ with some extras


Sorry for the lousy pic quality, I still only have my 1.3 MPl Nokia handy...

Looks really nice! Much better than the E90, IMHO.

I use to like the E90 but after seeing the E92 in person there is no comparison IMHO. The E92 is much better looking to me.

1) A Saphire Black 325i with standard 17" rims

2) A Space Grey 325i with standard 17" rims

3) A S. Black 335i with extra Style 189 18" rims

4) Comparison front end E90 vs. E92 (a 325i with sport chassi and 19" rims)

Since almost everyone is so hyped up about the 335i, I saw one the other day with "thin" lights on the rear similarly to the 745i lights. While I've seen 4 different 335i in 4 different colors weeks ago, this one looked "kicked ass" from the back, and perhaps better from the side than the other "stock" 335i at the dealership.

Are there different back ends for the 335i? Might I have seen a modded one or the new M3?

Anybody have pics of the new M3 . . . 'cause I think I saw it in Houston, Texas. Even my wife noticed it was "different looking" and caught her eyes. "Hey, Hon, what kind of BMW is that?
