Agreed that the 335is is a gem! For years I wanted a 335i, then 335is. I even made a list of all the mods I was gonna put on. When the time came, the prices of E92 M3s were close enough to lightly used 335is' that I took the jump up to the M. Zero regrets a year later, but I know I would've been happy with the 335 as well!

Congrats! DCT or manual? I've had mine 3 years now and it's still a thrill to drive. I did upgrade a bit though ;) You've got to look into an MHD tune. Stage 1 is a very simple and cheap upgrade that will change your car from quick to fast. Stage 2 and 2+ involves minor hardware upgrades, but takes the car into and beyond M3-fast territory

Got my '12 Alpine 335is almost two years ago and couldn't be happier. I prefer it's sleekness in comparison to the bulkier muscular M3. The 335is reminds you it's a special car from BMW every time you start it up and hear that unique exhaust purrr

May try to find one for the wife, didn't know about this car until this vid.. I'd have to disagree the presence of the M3 beats the 335 every time. I take my M to car shows, it grabs as much attention as a ZR1 2011 M3 frozen black edition 20 in North America 263 in the world I'll admit it could be the paint that draws the attention over being an M

I agree, 2012 E93/DCT with 35k here. Bought it 5 months ago and I fall harder in love every time I drive it. Good overview though I don't think you mentioned the 313m rims. Mine has the 19s and I think it's the best exterior cosmetic upgrade on the 'is, and I believe was exclusive to these cars. Also the amazing dark glacier aluminum interior trim was a very rare option on the 3-series but standard on the 'is. Of course the DCT is what truly makes it special for North America since we never got a dual clutch trans except in the M3. All-around gorgeous cars with monster torque, lightning quick shifts, and intoxicating exhaust note. Brilliant factory car. If I had one wish it would be that they had given it some suspension upgrades as well.
@SimplyCarThings
@SimplyCarThings 7 лет назад
Jarrod Smith Definitely! Very solid points you mentioned, if i had to say one gripe for the 335i's in general, it would have to be their lack of a limited slip differential
@HangmansHalo

Such a great alternative too if you don’t want the M3 insurance costs as well. You gotta love the stock wheels on the 335IS wheels as well. That and the stock wheels for the E46 330CI ZHP are some of BMWs best looking factor wheels out there. The only problem now is that the 335IS are incredibly hard to find. At least in the general Seattle area. Great video !

Great comment. The car is definitely not for posers.

Don't get me wrong the M3 is great and in fact I would love to have one to track. But the 335is is a better DD and if the reason you want an M3 is to get noticed around town, then...

James Clifford don't kid yourself. The 335 is not a car for the driving purist. It's a pig. And the fact that 335 lovers think otherwise shows their lack of knowledge and experience.

Gotta admit that I personally think that spending 25k on a 335is is a bit too much considering u can get a normal 335 for around half of the price and with 2k of mods , it can be more powerful , even though the options and equipements aren't the same but still. If I had 25k , I'd easily go with an M car such as the E46/E92 M3 or even an E39/E60 M5 but that's just me
@SimplyCarThings
@SimplyCarThings 7 лет назад
BMW E46 Thats a fair statement to make and I definitely see where youre coming from, but for around $25k remember you can get a 335is w/ around 25-35000 miles on it, which is really low. An M-car for that price is going to have high miles and most likely seen better days

Very informative video. I feel like 335is is one of few examples where BMWs not so good depreciation habit can be taken advantage off for the benefit of the customer. Bmw really filled in the gap between 335 and m3 and with the is model gave its owners the feel of exclusivity. I made the switch from 335 x drive to 335is. I'm biased just like the guy in the video. Definitely recommend to test drive the car.

I feel that the 335i was a "parts bin special". A way to use up surplus M54 motors. They could have perfectly acheived the same with the N55 motor. This car sort of fiills the same category of the ZHP 330i from the E46 generation.

A few reasons why I didn't opt for the 335i and went for the non-turbo models instead: - cost - reliability (maintenance costs) - I live in a hot climate and do want the additional heat problems - the 335i in Australia only came with a Satnav system which I didnt want - I prefer naturally aspirated motors (sound, responsiveness, higher redline)

@Thkfast
@Thkfast 7 лет назад
I have a 2012 335is with DCT and found the "kick down" irritating. Flooring it at highway speeds would cause the transmission to down shift too far and rev to the moon instead of finding the N54's sweet spot which is 4,000-6,000, so I mounted a throttle block (a thin piece of plastic under the accelerator pedal) that prevents the last 1/4" of throttle travel and now it down shifts right into the power band! These are high 12 second cars with very simple mods and as the video states, most very were highly optioned cars. Many 335is' are just now coming available off lease - a good time to snatch one up.

@SimplyCarThings 7 лет назад

The 335is is a great car, but for $25k, it seems like a lot, no? What about a pre-LCI E92 M3. They can be found for a little over $20k. Also gives you some room for repairs, and is a true M car.
@jmm5346
@jmm5346 7 лет назад
Samuel Abraham a lot of you’re comparing it to a 335i. However they’re not the same car. You can mod a 335i to be fast you can mod a 335is to also be fast however you’ll never be able to have a dual clutch transmission in your 335i. Which to me, makes the “IS” look more updated on the interior. You also won’t get that 70ft lb Torque over Boost The 335is comes with. You also won’t be a part of the exclusive club with your run of the mill 335. Only 3500 335is were produced in 3yrs so you’ll be sitting in a rarer car than your dime a dozen 335i. I would opt for an M3 but as a daily driver a 335is can’t be beat especially with that low end torque in the 2k rpm range.
@SamAbraham
@SamAbraham 7 лет назад
Bender Banana I’m comparing it to an M3 tho... idk, I just feel like people would opt for an M3 over a 335is if given the choice between the two. I know I would.

Buddy had 2009 m3 and tried to daily it. You must rev the crap out the car constantly to really enjoy it. Parts are ridiculous. Insurance is high and gas mileage was 13 to 16 mpg barely. He did not do it but lifters can go shit. Many other issues .Fun car but only a weekend or track toy. 335i or is is much better daily. He sold his in 3 months and got a Porsche Carrera s 2011. All around better car and true track toy. M3 fun car but rather mod a 335i .
@HPAddict
@HPAddict 6 лет назад
Brett Brett I haven’t had an m3 before, I have a 335i but I thought that you would have to rev the shit out of the m3 , 335i has the same torque but comes on earlies and also falls of earlier. No point in revving an n54 above 6500 on stock twins. I think for daily usage the 335i with low rpm torqe takes the win.

It's an M trim for sure with the better radio. The Convenience Package to my understanding comes with Power tailgate, Keyless entry, Rear Manual Window Shades, Xeon Headlights, Comfort Access >> Not sure totally what that is besides getting with just the key in your hand... Can U shed some light on the matter? Thanks.

Gary Brandolino Thank you! And its really up to your preference. BMW makes both great manual and automatic transmissions which are very strong. For the most part as long as the fluids have been maintained and the car hasnt been abused the transmission should have no problems. At least from my personal experience and chats with other owners

People who are saying they would get a m car with that money they are way less reliable especially the e60 m5 you’ll put so much money into that car and notice it wasn’t worth it the 335i is amazing i own one and the only thing that has ever gone wrong was the charge pipe because they are made out of cheap plastic but i agree this bmw is great
@maliekbrown6155
@maliekbrown6155 5 лет назад
Foreign Whips the e92 m3 and e60 m5 motors pretty much came out a F1 car, I agree there not reliable and you would throw a lot of money into them BUT those M cars are great for a weekend car or track car. Just gotta stay on top of maintenance and treat the car right and it should be no problem for a track car or weekend car. But I would definitely not try to daily those cars that’s where the 335is comes in because it’s more practical

$25k for a nice example but there are plenty of cheaper ones . Check out over 500hp channel / website. They go through craigslist to find modded cars and always have good well maintained examples. Go get yourself a 335i thays already been modded to your spec . Have a mechanic check it out and boom you just bought a completely modded car for less than the cost of a stock one.

@soldierviejo8224
@soldierviejo8224 7 лет назад
Go with the MHD tune, me and you have the same car and they are awesome/neck snappers with the top down for sure. If you are going to tune it though you will need to get a chargepipe, intercooler and a new diverter valve or a blow off valve in order to deal with the new found power and to meet your cooling needs. Other things I'd recommend is an Oil Sport Valve Cooler to keep your engine oil in check and under 250 degrees otherwise you will go into Limp Mode (Half Engine power light will come on).
@soldierviejo8224
@soldierviejo8224 7 лет назад
JB4 is great too but MHD is fast becoming the new choice plus it's easier to uninstall if you are under warranty and have to take it to the dealership for services. BMW is quick to blame anything that goes wrong with your car on your mods or tune if you take it to them and they are having problems figuring out what is wrong with it or how to fix it. Trust me, I've been through it with them and if they blame your mods/tune then it will void your warranty.
@SimplyCarThings
@SimplyCarThings 7 лет назад
My car just hit limp mode yesterday out of nowhere. I wasnt driving it hard, no SES light, and no weird issues otherwise Im also not tuned. I suspect either a bad vanos solenoid or a boost leak somewhere. I hope I can resolve it quick :/

I used to drive 328xi for a year never had problem only change oil. and I decided to trade into 335is DCT white and red interior, and it has 24k miles plus remus exhaust, carbon wing , carbon dual diffuser , dci, cp and bov for 32k, after 2weeks of driving I return the car from the dealer I feel like 32k is way out of my budget. now I end up with 2011 335i automatic with 60k miles for 20k 2months ago and Im not happy with auto transmission, its not fun at all. its not same as DCT. I'm planning to trade in the future into 335is with manual or DCT. Since I put down 3k Should I keep the car or trade into 335is?
@SimplyCarThings

I don't agree with this at all... you can get a 2008-2009ish BMW M3 with around 80k miles for around 25k if you search. I've owned both and much prefer my M3 for race car sounds and superior handling. No one gets excited when they hear you have a 335is. Their eyes get big when they see the M3 badge. :)
