I have the 335i, and have had the turbo tuner installed for about 4mths...since break in :}...so far my fav car to date. The sport and Premium package is a must....
Runs like a charm with no problems, and will walk a stock M3 (non08) with the TT installed.

yes I will try and post some pics soon.......I loved the 8, but the 335 really makes u smile.....I have the auto and in sport mode I don't miss the stick at all. It shifts so smooth and quick....not to mention it's been tested as faster than the manual :} It's doesn't fit like a glove like the 8 did, but it's still gives you the sport u want, with lots of power!....I can't tell u how many STI's, modded SRT4's etc have tried to run with me, only to be sadly surprised

You have to test one out for yourself and see how fast in sport mode the shifts are.....I have always loved the Manual, but this is the first Auto I have fallen in love with......I am sure overall the manual and Auto are close, but unless you are a pro-driver and can shift perfectly everytime, the Auto will have the egde. Another thing I noticed is how incredible it hooks up off the line...remove the traction control, put it in sport mode and floor it and there is hardly any lag and you get a nice launch...in fact so much so I have easily jumped on an STI which you think would have the edge from a stop.....I have jumped out a few cars lengths when full boost kicks in which is right down low and continues until redline. Here is one article testing the Auto. Pay close attention to the second paragraph where they say it was slightly faster than the manual they tested.

G35 is the **** (G37 is even better, but not on the list). Pure sex. Saw one tonight in black and another in silver. Absolutely stunning.
BMW = WAY overpriced.

well I test drove the G35 and G37......I just preferred the fit and finish in the 335....and it's a known fact the 335 would walk a G35, and has shown it is still a quicker car than the G37. They are both nice cars, but I actually liked the lines of the G35 better over the G37?...great exhaust sound too
The 335 was so easy to mod, and I felt had a much better "feel" when driven hard?...that twin turbo sounds great, and I still believe BMW under-rated the hp?just my2cents
