Just read around the forums and search, you would be surprised at how much you will learn. But the biggest issue for the 335i would probably be the HPFP issues that it has, and the overheating. Some people have gotten a HPFP fail as soon as they leave the lot with their brand new 335i. But most 335s have a 120k mile and 10 year warranty on the HPFP and BMW will lemon your car after 3 failures, so the HPFP issue isn't too bad anymore. BMW also has new software out that supposedly is supposed to make the HPFP not fail as much.

Another kinda big issue is the 335s overheating problem. If you plan on tracking the car and really pushing it, the 335 might overheat after a few laps. But again, thats only if your looking to track the car, and aftermarket oil coolers can be bought to help with that.
